You're a company. Nancy Pelosi and Tim Geithner require you to make the product for $20, and sell it for $10. The government gives you a $12 subsidy. The government taxes any profit at 80%, and limits your compensation to $100k, require all your employees to drive hybrid cars, not use plastic bags, and flush the toilets no more than 3 times a day, and demands an 60% ownership in your company.. What is the net profit?

I am not a company!
A loss of $22
A loss of $10
A profit of $.40
A profit of $2.00
A profit of $4.00
A profit of $9.60
I move to China and make it for $2
Don't be silly - there is no such thing as a company.
I'll file Chapter 7 bankruptcy and retire
We are so screwed!
A corporation can be a person, but I'm not a corporation!
Finally understanding the meaning of Fascism
If that happens, I'm no longer in business
If my "profit" is via subsidy, it's not really profit, is it?
The best accountants make the net profit what ever amount you want.
They should give the product away instead of selling it for 10 dollars
