    If you really analize, Cain fits in between the gop and trump.

    He was a good candidate if u think about it
    GOP = Trump

    Therefore Cain = Trump?

    I do think tax breaks should be cut. Itemized deductions should be limited to 15k/person or 30k/couple regardless of income, and businesses should only be able to write off $100k including big businesses

    Amazon should have to pay the regular tax rate for their bracket instead of writing off 99% of their taxable income. That's what really screws over the IRS, not because of individuals of middle or lower class (<250k).

    Don't raise taxes... cut tax breaks, especially for corporations.
    No matter how much you try to "cut tax breaks" and "simplify the tax code" corporations and rich individuals will hire the best lobbyists and tax attorneys to add the tax breaks back in over time. The only way to offset that is higher marginal rates for corporations/rich individuals.

    Premature. Herman Cain is being bruited about as a Federal Reserve Board nominee right now.

    Parsing one's own comments repeatedly is apparently a veteran move.

    no, they can make it fraudulent to add more tax breaks than allowed. Also lobbyists should be taxed, too.

    They can make it “fraudulent” to hire a tax lawyer to walk into court and pursue a ruling that makes certain income non taxable or certain expenses tax deductible? Good luck with that.

    Lobbyists are taxed just like everyone else so I have no idea what you’re trying to claim there.

    They make a hard law saying you can only deduct up to 250K per year as a corporation and you cannot write off any previous losses. A simple and strict law like that would be hard to appeal no matter how expensive your attorneys are.

    Deduct 250k from what? Cash based income? GAAP income? Some combination of the two?

    Youre already assuming away tons of complexity.

    The total gross revenue that the company earns from all sources.

    A few things:

    1) Is that gross revenue collected or recognized under GAAP?

    2) Are you seriously saying that companies couldn’t deduct more than 250k or normal operating expenses (ie cost of goods sold, payroll, etc.)?

    Either they take a percentage standard deduction based on their domain (based on whether they're a restaurant, brokerage firm, bank, whatever they are) or they deserve to be audited. GAAP/IFRS provides too many loopholes.
