If you promise to invest $5 billion and add 25k jobs at average salary of $150k someone will reach out to you. Meanwhile there was no federal tax incentive in their Queens plan. So if you also send a few million on tax lawyers, they'll find the same deductions that Amazon gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, you not being able to follow logical pathing is not my fault. Your argument is no different than Bernie Sanders, you simply have different government priorities. You believe that all money belongs to the government, and that they have the right to restrict private wealth as a just function of government. It's a purely socialist argument. As to your response to snafu, you are so much less than impressive as a person. Any argument which ends with threats of violence when confronted with fair critiques is empty. Congratulations. You're still an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I force my accountant to talk like I’m 5 so I can understand things. However, when I see billion dollar conglomerates getting breaks that I’m not I get pissed. That’s guns, ammo, and equipment that could be going to the military. Im all about incentivizing business. However, it’s always the gagillionaires and NEVER the little guys like me who get the breaks. I see both sides, but c’mon — how is what Amazon is doing worse than what every welfare queen is doing? In scope what Amazon is doing is way more costly. Of course. And Warren Buffet’s secretary pays more taxes than he does. Upset by getting “less” of an income tax refund too perhaps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 So it's being reported that Amazon is paying no corporate tax for the 2018 tax year after posting $11B in profit. Does anyone know what tax laws and what offsets reduce their tax liability to zero? The articles read don't have details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
