How do you explain, then, that we've had reduced corporate taxes over the last several years and the profits for the oil and gas industry have exponentially and significantly increased? How do we guarantee that if we lower taxes the difference is going to go to businesses and consumers?
Currently the profits are rising significantly, and I haven't seen that passed on to the manufacturing industry. I haven't seen it passed on to the consumer. I would assume the profit margin would remain stable or depreciate if they're going to pass it on the customers.
