Internationalist Barons and Tax Inversions

Rampant internationalism that has been detrimental to American citizens for decades, and that should be dramatically scaled back, was a key platform issue in Mark Greene's campaign for Congress and was addressed as such in his voters' pamphlet entry.  For all the people who voted for the status quo in the Congressional primary last 5th of August, Burger King's move to Canada shouldn't have surprised any Smith voters.  Corrupt so-called American companies, but really internationalist ones with internationalist barons running them, are moving to foreign countries by the hundreds, maybe thousands, to take advantage of weak U.S. tax laws that allow them to get out of paying taxes that pays for the national infrastructure and educational development of the national workforce that they are dependent on.  

There will be no long essay about the intricacies of tax inversion, here, but Congress could put a stop to it with a simple bill.  Some commentators on MSNBC/TV were saying that Congress should lower corporate taxes so that they won't move, but that's not necessary and shouldn't be done.  The country needs all the funding from corporations that the current rate allows, given the huge budget deficit and other needs, including rebuilding infrastructure and college tuition costs relief.  By and large, the corporations are not in any financial trouble by any stretch of the imagination, but as rich as ever.  They are just greedy and want increasing gargantuan salaries for their CEOs and executives.  All Congress has to do, by making a law, is just say that corporations can no longer play these international shell games, but this won't happen anytime soon, because America gets exactly the Congress she elects, and to our dismay, this Congress is beholden to the internationalist barons that are wrecking the nation bit by bit.

Mark Greene for Federal Way Mayor

I am officially announcing for Mayor of Federal Way, today, as I was able to obtain sufficient resources to file with the Elections Department on May 18th, 2017, and able to run a full campaign until the August 1st Primary, and hopefully beyond. This All-American Relief campaign will start picking up steam around the beginning of June, as now I'm concentrating on getting about 100 signs on the ground.  Next week, I will be sending out press releases to the major publications in our area: the  Times , the  News Tribune , and the  Mirror.   For more information about this campaign of common sense philosophy and patriotic fervor, see my website and keep up with the posts on this blog, as they usually come about twice a week or more. -- Mark Greene, Official Candidate for Mayor of Federal Way Campaign Website:  ALL-AMERICAN RELIEF Campaign Blog:   FW Politics

Our Newest Blog

There's a new blog of ours called "Council" that started on 2/15/15.  This is the blog that you now want to check to keep up with the goings-on of the "Mark Greene for Federal Way City Council" campaign.  Not that you shouldn't keep checking this blog as well, but Revived Citizens Party will, from this time on, concentrate more on party matters, particularly, as opposed to the Council campaign, which is officially a non-partisan campaign.  The non-partisanship of local campaigns, generally, is decided by Washington law, although we realize, of course, that politicians like to hide their true colors behind official non-partisanship.  However, we're different in that respect, our blogs make it pretty clear that Mark Greene runs a third party and no longer affiliates at all with the major parties.  The "Top 2" primary that arose in Washington, circa 2008, made that possible.

Our Washington State Lieutenant Governor Candidate Blog

There will be a special place to write about the Lieutenant Governor 2016 election, which I'm in, and specifically Washington state issues and matters, generally, even when the election is over.  All of the recent Lieutenant Governor posts on FW Politics  will be carried over to the new blog, Washingtonian.   I am proud to be a natural-born American and a Washingtonian, and I will need your vote to stand up for the Common Man in our state and our nation.   [Originally posted on Washingtonian on April 29, 2016; revised on May 26, 2016.]
