So long as they are operating in a legal manner and are paying the taxes they are supposed to pay, then what business does the government have getting involved in the day to day operation.
IF wal-mart came in requesting tax breaks, and the government said, ok, but you have to do this, then both sides have made an agreement. I realize there have been other incidents with wal-mart and those are or have been dealt with, as they should be. It is similar the marriage penalty. By being married our tax burden is higher than if we weren't married. I think that is unfair. Because we are now a larger organization, more is expected of us than when we were individuals. > -----Original Message----- > From: dana tierney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2006 3:37 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: [signs of sanity] MD no longer subsidizing Walmart > > ok, here's a simple question... why not? > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:192829 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
