You're the one that said you had issues with the tax laws and loopholes they were using. My apologies for assuming you had the intelligence to name at least one that they were using to game the system.


You accuse me of parroting others, I acknowledge that, and then you also simultaneously assume I know anything about business tax laws?


Regardless of my knowledge of business tax laws, I know that a business as large as Amazon paying an effective rate of about ~10% is horseshite. Amazon has a fiduciary duty to pay as little tax as possible, of course, so it's not necessarily that they're doing something nefarious. They're doing what companies do. It's supposed to be up to our government to not give these companies the ability to get out of paying more taxes.

You're right, how silly of me to assume a person to have done any research whatsoever before forming a pretty trenched in opinion.

Why is it horse shite? What rate should they be paying?

That isn't the role of our government at all.
