First up, David Atkins from The Washington Monthly and Dave Johnson of The Campaign for America’s Future dive into the murky waters of how to finally tax offshore corporate profits.

Finally, David Dayen discusses three unsung heroes of the mortgage meltdown ““ ordinary people who wouldn’t let their homes be foreclosed without fighting back. They sparked a movement that turned foreclosures back on the banks and led to real legislative change…

    you said, “we discuss how multinational corporations avoid taxes (and what to do about it).”

    I will Spend about 5 seconds on this. Ready? Eliminate the Income Tax and Abolish the IRS. Ron Paul said this Long ago, it’s time. Boom end of discussion ALL *.* whiny tax problems solved. Tax (aka road agent theft) is eliminated.

    For the record the CAFR fraud is bigger than the foreclosure fraud. Fit CAFR into the picture and the government ought to be paying US each month (from their own profit!) Bottom line they don’t need to tax us people, they are not good people and steal it. IT will take someone with integrity to break this spell.

    Poor Linda Green gave the public the most easily understandable outrage on this whole matter, and she was only making 12 bucks an hour.

    That’s not at all fair.
