amazon pays tax

2020-03-14 13:00:59 UTC  

Up until 2018 Amazon's profits were razor thin.

2020-03-14 13:01:02 UTC  

lots.

2020-03-14 13:01:07 UTC

2020-03-14 13:01:08 UTC  

hundreds of millions infact

2020-03-14 13:01:56 UTC  

look at what I just posted in general chat

2020-03-14 13:02:12 UTC  

that's Amazon's most current 10k filing with the SEC

2020-03-14 13:02:43 UTC  

ur either very stupid about how taxes and business works or ur being purposefully ignorant

2020-03-14 13:03:04 UTC  

and are you suggesting that taxing Amazon and using that income is not the govt paying?

2020-03-14 13:03:30 UTC  

It's not a bad thing that Amazon didn't pay taxes

2020-03-14 13:03:34 UTC  

did u read this article? because it explained what deferring income tax from loses is

2020-03-14 13:03:37 UTC  

As in corporate tax.

2020-03-14 13:03:44 UTC  

its not.

2020-03-14 13:03:56 UTC

2020-03-14 13:04:02 UTC  

not true

2020-03-14 13:04:07 UTC  

true

2020-03-14 13:04:20 UTC

2020-03-14 13:04:24 UTC  

^

2020-03-14 13:04:33 UTC  

I mean I guess u dont care what that means or something

2020-03-14 13:05:00 UTC  

deferred means postpone

2020-03-14 13:05:02 UTC  

It doesn't matter if they didn't pay any in taxes.

2020-03-14 13:05:08 UTC  

It's called carryforward losses.

2020-03-14 13:05:11 UTC  

so no, it didnt pay any of federal taxes

2020-03-14 13:05:18 UTC  

ur kinda slow

2020-03-14 13:05:22 UTC  

I'll try harder

2020-03-14 13:05:33 UTC  

Taxing them higher isn't a solution.

2020-03-14 13:05:40 UTC  

Infact it's a bad thing.

2020-03-14 13:06:15 UTC
