If Amazon paid zero taxes, how do they then get a “tax break”?
Great question!
All I know I made no where near this amount and I owe taxes.
I guess it really pays well to have good lobbyists.
You didn't really ask that did you????
You're not supposed to, this is all about hating Amazon, not for wondering about silly things like you just did.
Mr. Trump, do something...
Instead of paying these deferred taxes at the previous 35 percent rate, Amazon now gets an extra reward for postponing the taxation of this income: a 40 percent discount from 35 to 21 percent. This is the source of Amazons $789 million windfall.
They are NOT receiving $789 million. They will be paying $789 million less than previously owed.
More important is how I get these tax breaks along with free shipping!
