Midknight Review -- new and revised: Ever heard of "inversion?" It is the newest "phobic" word to describe those who feel taxes are too high, here in the US, and are leaving for better tax environments. Right or wrong??

In an article in Politico, the author suggests that the American people are incensed with the notion that some would work the tax code to their favor, and legally move their businesses out of country, in spite of the fact that this is precisely why we pay accountants to figure our taxes . . . . . . . to get out of paying taxes.

What is sadly true, is the fact that our nation began in protest to taxation without representation. And, if you think the folks in Congress, especially the Utopian crowd we call "Democrat Progressives," represent you as to taxation, well, you have not been keeping up.

The fact of the matter is this: if anything is "unAmerican," it is the progressive/regressive tax code that steals from the rich and gives to those perfectly capable of working and earning their way through life. That our lawmakers would work to criminalize free choice when it comes to maintaining a business, is unAmerican by all historic markers defining the beginnings of this once great nation. I really don't care about the motivation of a particular business. As long as that business supplies jobs and pays taxes, it should not be required to remain in this country or pay rates so high they can be confused with extortion.

What is rather humorous, is the latest Utopian attack on Burger King. Burger King was targeted by the Socialist Left, and an attempt made to brand that company as "unpatriotic." Turns out, Burger King was not working to escape the present tax structure, and had the blessings of Warren Buffett.

The story made the Marxist Media evening news headlines for no more than two days, and is now gone from sight. Why? Because the attempt to brand Burger King as a defector was based on unresearched nonsense, an Utopian lie designed to increase Democrat voter participation. The strategy was quickly abandoned, more because it simply did not work than any other consideration. Folks read the news on their way to Burger King and that was the end of that. Turns out, an economic and great lunch trumps Utopian strategy . . . . . . as it should (in this case).

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
