Average people who vote Republican are mindless sheep.Study: 82% of World’s Money Was Made by the Top 1% Last Year
Eighty-two percent of the money made last year went to the richest 1 percent of the world’s population, according to a report by anti-poverty charity Oxfam. With these numbers, the charity claimed that the gap between the global rich and poor has further increased. “Tax evasion, firms’ influence on policy, erosion of workers’ rights, and cost cutting” were the identified factors that contributed to the growing disparity. In this year’s report, the richest 42 people in the world had as much wealth as the poorest half. “However you look at it, this is an unacceptable level of inequality,” said Oxfam Chief Executive Mark Goldring. The report’s release is coincides with the World Economic Forum in Davos, where issues of inequality are discussed but “fade away at the first resistance,” said Goldring.

Yes they are.
It is the responsibility of every American citizen to own a modern military rifle.

The top 1% includes individual income earners, not corporations.
But the answer to your question is to make American corporations competitive to keep from losing jobs abroad and to give an incentive for Apple and other corporations to bring home the trillions stashed abroad. If you read about the benefits, raises, and bonuses it is also helping American workers.

Bullshit.
If they already own 82% of the world's wealth, they aren't hurting, they don't need to ship jobs or stash money overseas,they and they don't need a fucking tax cut.
They can already afford to do all those things for their employees, still be unGodly wealthy and still make a large profit.
This is all about GREED.
C'MON MAN!!!!

Agenda21.
You are confusing the 1% with corporations. It is the individuals like Warren Buffet who own the wealth. If corporations weren't hurting you wouldn't see many of those closing stores or going out of business. If foreign companies pay less taxes and have less environmental controls they can sell products cheaper than the U. S. Make it easier for U. S. corporations to compete and more workers will be gaining wealth also.
Why would anybody bring money home and have to pay 35% taxes when they can stash it abroad and use lower interest rates to build plants abroad?
Remember, consumers control corporations. If you think they are too greedy abstain from buying cell phones, TVs, new cars, going to restaurants and movies...they would be gone just like all those Sams, Macys, Sears, Penneys, and other stores that closed. They didn't close those stores because they were making high profits.
