Tax Rates for Big Corps Lower than Joe Sixpack!!

It's hard to believe or I guess it's not really that hard to believe, when the whole U.S. government is run for and by special interests, but these big corporations are getting away with such a scam.  In a day when the Republicans are slashing and burning any program that might benefit the middle class, when Republicans demanding the middle class to give up their collective bargaining rights in Wisconsin—big corporations are not paying their fair share in taxes.  Can you believe a big company like Boeing had a tax rate of 4.5% over a 5 year period recently?  It's shocking that we Americans put up with this nonsense.  When will Egypt, Tunisia and Libya's revolts move to the U.S.?  Oops, they already have in Wisconsin!
