Newsmax: The Democratic nominee for Florida governor, Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, has a plan to raise the state’s corporate tax rate by about 40 percent, a proposal resurfaced by Americans for Tax Reform (ATR).
Gillum first announced his plan to raise the corporate tax rate from 5.5 percent to 7.75 percent in January, but ATR dug it up after his upset victory in the state Democratic primary on Tuesday.
In a post on Medium, Gillum wrote that 90 percent of Florida-based corporations “pay no state corporate income tax,” and the ones that do only pay 5.5 percent, “lower than ruby red bordering conservative states Alabama and Georgia.”
According to Gillum, “by adjusting our state corporate tax level to a modest 7.75 percent, which still allows corporations in Florida a massive tax cut and keeps our rate more than 1 percent lower than California, we will be able to recoup at least $1 billion back from the richest corporations and put it where we need it most — investing in our future.” more here

BUYING VOTES.
You can’t ‘recoup’ what you never had.
All money belongs to government and the deep thinkers should be in charge of how much of other people’s money they can keep and to whom the spoils of theft are allocated.
This guy has no chance of winning.
Right? RIGHT???
If he does I’ll be a monkey’s uncle
Sure. As soon as I move to Florida THIS has to happen…Son of Obama.
We could make it SOB by calling him a son of barry.
Isn’t he under FBI investigation for some schenanigans in Talasassee?
(sp?) I hope the FBI don’t monkey it up.
Another Democrat suffering from TAX ENVY.
“Their tax is bigger than ours. I gotta have the bigger tax.”
This maroon has not learned: If taxes are raised, gummit money decreases. If taxes are lowered,the opposite happens.President Trump just proved that again! This buffoon does not even pay attention!
Seems like socialists can’t survive without money.
….but like dumb-asses, we can’t seem to figure out how to rid the society from them.
The answer has always been there.
Corporations don’t pay taxes; they just pass it on to the consumers.

“investing in our future” is a liberal dog whistle meaning more welfare and more votes for the democRATS.
