That you are unable to make a point without all caps speaks volumes of your inability to effectively communicate. Not at all surprising considering the typical intellect of Trump supporters.

Caps are used merely as a form of inflection, if that concept is above you, you are beneath me.

It's considered shouting. Much like Donald would do. He would be so proud of his loyal minion.

Top Dem furious about EpiPen price hike | Washington Examiner
Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., echoed calls for the House Oversight Committee to bring the CEO of Mylan to Congress to answer for the price increase for the allergy treatment, which in some cases shot up from $57 a dose in 2007 to $364 last year. Cummings is the top Democrat on the committee.

Cummings and Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., wrote to Mylan in 2014 asking the drug maker to explain price increases for certain generics as part of a larger investigation into higher generic prices. EpiPen was not among the drugs listed in the letter, but others included were the asthma treatment albuterol sulfate, whose price increased by 4,000 percent from 2013 to 2014.

I wonder if Cummings realizes he is going up against a member of the Clinton Foundation. Ironic.

No doubt you have the same view of those who support the lying scumbag Trump?

'Ya know, Trump might be a scumbag, but this thread is not about him. I have seen you in the past accuse Republicans of changing the subject when they are in the hot seat. But here you are, doing the exact same thing.

The CEO's company did leave the US because of high taxes. Whose fault is that?

Must be a misprint, as we all know that liberals are ALL against making exorbitant profits because they are so caring for the people that are in need.

But politicians and their families are part of the new aristocracy, so **** the People, they're just peasants here to help the aristocrats line their pockets.

uh no. Pointing out a CEO of a company is the daughter of a Democrat senator is just NOT breaking news. I'd say the same thing if it was a Republican.

They did an inversion, which means they moved a piece of paper offshore, and the GOP passed TWO major tax cuts with Bush as you might recall and did nothing to corporate tax rates, so I blame it on Bush and the GOP!

The $5.3 billion deal will allow Mylan to relocate its company headquarters from the U.S. to the Netherlands, skirting higher U.S. corporate taxes in the process.

I look at Mylan and see that we are the last company, in terms of our major competitors, that is headquartered in the U.S. That puts me at a huge disadvantage. I pay the largest corporate tax. As I am trying to deliver and grow this company and I am now handicapped and penalized being in the U.S. We can’t stand still and stay in the U.S. because of all the political rhetoric. Someone in Washington needs to get serious about fixing the tax code. That is what needs to happen. Who is being punished here is America because we are losing what makes us great.

Has Obama reached out to you to discuss corporate tax inversions?

No, and I would love to say that he should, but unfortunately I have lost respect for him. This is what he lacks as a leader. He is not hearing from us. He has isolated himself, from my perspective, and hears from who he wants to hear from versus understanding the issue. He didn’t want to take this on as a policy issue and he doesn’t want to fix it. I haven’t heard from anybody in the administration.
