55 major corporations paid zero in income tax in recent years.

My Build Back Better Agenda is going to change that paradigm – and give working families a fighting chance.

Taxing corporations does nothing for the working person except increase prices.

None of that will actually "give working families a fighting chance". You will take that money and waste it while the "working families" will suffer due to increased prices of good and services.

No shite! He and Obama did this in most those cases I believe...they gave tax amnesty to many companies if my memory serves me correctly, especially their big donors/supporters...

So what.

Corporations don’t pay taxes. The people who buy their products pay taxes for them.

All raising corporate taxes will do is make things more expensive for poor and middle class while the CEOs of these companies get richer….just like the politicians want.

And like 90% of those probably were able to do so because of NOLs and excess tax deductions from share based comp--things you voted for while in Congress, Joe.

Did they make income? If so, that would be illegal and he should get his Justice Department on the case.

Why are Democrats so economically and fiscally retarded? Doesn't anyone on their side realize "corporate taxes" is just double taxation on individuals? The irony is the upper middle class limousine liberals who are in favor of punishing those evil corporations are just taxing their own retirement and investment portfolios. But they scratched their juvenile urge to virtue signal.

That's outrageous. We need to reduce the taxes for all of the rest of the corporations in the country to zero, as well. That is more fair.

Corporate taxes are the least progressive tax there is. It raises prices for the rich and poor alike. We should all be against corporate taxes. The complaint that corporations need to pay their fair share is the same as trying to lift yourself up by pulling on your own bootstraps.

That's just it--they aren't because capital will just push the incidence of tax elsewhere.
