Does anyone know of any economists that praise Obama because he wants to raise corporate and business taxes?
Can anyone provide a link to any economists that say raising corporate and business taxes will help a sluggish economy?
To poster "tonalc2": I begin to wonder how many of those economists in academia have actually run businesses, or if they've just been in university economics departments all their lives.
Here is a blog spot entitled economists for Obama.
