THE MONEY GAME AND THE WOLF

A short blog.

You've got to laugh through your tears as to what is happening politically.

Congress calls in Apples CEO to chastise Apple for how they used foreign investments and our current tax laws to save one heckuva lot of tax dollars when Apple might have helped bail out this countries finances had it acted in the country's best interests.

It reminds me of the story about the Dad who gave his son a dollar if he would forego eating dinner and go up to bed instead.

The meal might have consisted solely of  Brussel Sprouts. The story does not inform us here. Therefore, we are left to assume that money was tight, so the son said, "OK." and grabbed the cash.

When Dad finished his dinner, he sneaked up to his son's bedroom - found him fast asleep - and retrieved the dollar bill - which he put back in his wallet.

So, who supported the liberal tax laws allowing corporations to keep their money overseas?

After exhaustive research we find that it was Congress who allowed the handling of overseas profits to continue. There is so much out there about this subject that it would be unfair to "cherry pick" only those articles that support my blog theme here. So, some sparse comments:

The party of "The Little Boy Who Cried Wolf"' were probably quick to blame the people on the other side of the aisle - or at the very least - The White House.

Yet, we can only assume it was solely the Republicans who were responsible as the Democrats would never have allowed such a faux pas. We know this because we have been diligently listening to the liberal media and reading various blogs in lockstep that it is the Republicans - and only the Republicans - who are so tied into accepting Corporate largesse.

Matthew 7 (1 through 3):

"Judge not, that you be not judged For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with each measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why behold you the mote that is in your brother's eye, but consider not the beam that is in your eye?"

Told you it would be a short one.
