    The Entirely Made Up Claim That Corporations Pay No Taxes

    Now with the new blended retirement system, you don't even have to serve 20yrs to leave with a government $$ in a retirement account. It works more like a corporate plan where the gov't provides a match to your contributions so if you leave before 20yrs you can take it with you. edit: The...

    Anti MAGA Louisiana Republican Bill Cassidy Primaried - Massie out!
