Forum Post: No Representation Without Taxation

200 years ago (soon to be ...) Americans proclaimed no taxation without representation.

Today we need to proclaim no representation without taxation.

It's time to end the tax-free ride for big money while they purchase political favors in Washington.

I agree this is a corporate problem, and not a wealth problem. Rich people don't retain lobbyists for Congress ..... corporations do.

Separate the 'rich' individuals from the corporations. The corporations are the problem.
"Taxing the rich" does not work.
Just as the system we have is not capitalism, it is corporatism.
