Liberal dialogue constantly suggests, and many people might believe, that subsidies and credits actually give payments to these businesses. They do not. What they actually do, is reduce the final payment. Mobil still forks over many billions in profitable years.

How else would the federal government alone, have wound up with over $300 billion dollars in tax payments from these companies, over each of the last two years?

Finally, this is not about whether or not professors make a serious contribution

Professors by and large have reached high academic positions living in a world of books. Most, almost certainly, have little or no experience with directly creating wealth.

The typical business start-up requires a capital investment, rent or purchase of a facility, and the hiring of at least several employees, just to get underway.

A successful businessman must have the leadership skills to command respect from his employees. To gain that respect, he must have the business savvy of his particular business and know how to use leadership skills that will result in productivity from his employees.

In businesses where grunt work is dominant, he often must set the example doing most of the grunt work, to keep some employees from believing the boss "can not do without them". Even after all this, the typical businessman has a very small margin for error.

In the case of professors, their goals are in the academic world. They support the forces that will give them their highest standard of living, once they become professors. Many professors enjoy six figure salaries.

It is hard to imagine most professors having the leadership skills to start a business from scratch and show the leadership skills necessary for success, to say nothing of first putting up the capital. They likely resent this, causing them to turn against business and generally against the great success of our capitalist system.

Of course, it's that very system that provides their comfortable lifestyle.

Democrats, are the party of higher government spending. The more the government takes from taxpayers, the bigger the pie for professors to go after. Professors are registered Democrats by a very wide margin, they support most of the liberal Democratic agenda.

A major part of that agenda, is to vilify business, especially using the term big business and to attack companies like Exxon Mobil. The dialogue gets twisted further, suggesting that such businesses somehow are recipients from taxpayers. In reality these companies are large contributors to taxpayers.

A blog recently reported that Mobil, in the third quarter of 2006 paid, income taxes of $7.68 billion, excise taxes of $7.76 billion, all other taxes of $10.79 billion, a total of over $26 billion, for just one quarter

Finally, this is not about whether or not professors make a serious contribution to the nation, nor is there any suggestion that their salaries should be higher or lower. The U.S. is considered to have the finest university system in the world. There certainly are many fine professors, no matter what their politics.

It is about the fact that the role of wealth creation and the positive contribution of business in America is not only downplayed on most campuses, it is vilified, indeed even badly distorted.
