That's pretty awesome, but totally pales in awesomeness to this: In 2010 Deepwater Horizion (The company that owned and operated the BP oil rig that blew up in the gulf) gave their top execs massive SAFTEY bonuses for their "safest year to date". Now that takes some balls.

Sadly big corporations do what ever they want, and there's not a whole lot that you and I can do about it. You have a news article about BP? I am kinda curious what half ass excuse they used to not pay taxes. It's not like BP didn't show insane profits for 2011, even with the oil spill.

Wal-Mart handed out "pleasant shopping experience bonuses," yet every time I go in there it's a miracle I don't assault the retard rearranging a shelf 4 times who can't tell me where I could find a mini-fridge.

If/when there is a world revolution(which seems inevitable) try and remember these things happening so you know who to take the anger out on.

seems like we are in the early stages of a world revolution slowly making its way west from the middle east. I bet if the world legalized weed everyone would stop fighting and the food industry would single handedly boost everyone's economies.

With this younger, more informed generation gaining a voice I would think/hope that people would start to see what is really happening in the world around them. It's not pretty.

BP pays taxes on each gallon of fuel imported, again on each gallon at the distributor, and again during the refinement. The umbrella company does not pay any federal taxes as it is not a US company.
Intel, Google, and Microsoft make profits in most every single country and yet they don't pay corporate income taxes in all of those countries as they are US corporations and pay their taxes to the US.
This is how the tax system is structured for everyone, I don't see the big deal....
I am a bit pissed at the low life Louisianan fishers that recieved huge amounts of money for a fishery that was barely affected. Have you heard that sea food prices have sky rocketed while the sea food populations have actually increased simply due to lazy people living off BP versus performing their jobs? Fuck corrupt people and if you want the global tax structure but I don't see anything BP has done wrong regarding taxes.

And how much were you expecting to get if they paided taxes or any less taxes you would have to pay if they paided taxes. You sir will not get a damn thing the government gets it ALL. Does that help you are your family no.
If you take all the money away from bp the government will have it spent in a week. Next year you will still pay taxes there would be no bp(loss of million of jobs ect} and the government will still need money.
Not to worry though odumbass will destroy the dollar and have a NWO money for the world to collect taxes on and bp will pay no taxes.

Right, the baby boomers are starting to die. The world's demographics are starting to change. In 20 years I expect and hope this world to be very different.

That would be due to the fact that the people working at Wal-Mart are more than likely clinically retarded. As in, "Welcome to McDonald's, my name is Corky Sherwood, how may I help you.", retarded. It's not their fault, God made them this way. You should thank your lucky stars they are working at Wal-Mart as opposed to doing your landscaping or cleaning your house, that job is left for the Mexicans.

nothing new. gotta keep the rich rich and the poor poor. if you don't like it, time to leave because it's not going to change. no one's going to cut off their own arm to help you. that's what happens if the big guy helps the little guy.
