Tax Dodging CEOs Rake It In

The CEOs of profitable tax-dodging corporations are raking in the cash, according to a new report from the Institute for Policy Studies.

In fact, 25 major profitable corporations -- like Verizon and General Electric -- actually paid more to their CEO than they did in total federal income taxes.

Many of these same highly paid CEOs are responsible for eliminating jobs through layoffs and outsourcing.

Corporations are not people -- no matter what the Supreme Court says. It is the people that run them that decide to squeeze employees, outsource jobs and dodge taxes.
