Why Deficit Control Should Be Linked To The Big Business Sector

The primary reason why we have such a huge deficit should be attributed to the U. S. Business sector from previous years, because it is these folks who keep raising the prices that the Government must pay to operate this Nation in regard to all energy related prices, health care prices for the majority of our people, military supplies, food, and anything else that this U. S. Government may purchase to keep this Nation afloat.
Please consider this: Anytime a large business firm increases their wholesale prices--they are also increasing our National Debt at the same time. Over a period of four to eight years, this can really add up and become a big problem as we are now witnessing today. The people cannot control higher retail prices and our U. S. Government will not do it for them because they know who will eventually pay for the business inflated prices at the end of each tax year. Guess who receives all of the tax loopholes at the end of each year? You got it, the big business sector.
Just think my fellow Americans: If all the large business firms would reduce their present wholesale prices on products that are supplied to our Federal Government by only 20% as of today this would be a savings to our Federal Government on products and services that our Government purchases each day of one entire year.
It is the past inflation trends by big business who have created this present deficit crises and not the working poor or our Senior Citizens whose daily income is controlled by the Federal Government in the form of a minimum wage or an "inflation" COLA percentage payment. Is the income of the big business sector controlled at the present time? In addition anytime our politicians in Washington D. C. desire a perk business project for their district to be sure they are reelected this is rewarding big business for charging their inflated prices to our taxpayers that also increase the National Debt. Any place you look in regard to a National deficit, it can be traced right back to the business sector in one form or another. In essence, the deficit is a business problem and not a taxpayer peoples problem who are paying for these inflated prices also at the retail sector. In fact, the people are being taxed twice to pay for these business related inflated prices. Once at the retail location, and then paying the tax once again on their annual tax forms.
If you agree, pass the word. If you do not, you must be a wealthy person.
