10 Most Profitable US Companies Paid 9% In Taxes

[TheOne]

The largest corporations in the U.S., consisting of oil, retail, banking and technology giants, paid an average of only 9% of their earnings in income taxes to the Internal Revenue Service last year.



According to the tax code, companies are supposed to pay 35% income tax. But NerdWallet determined that the top 10 came nowhere near that.

9%...35%...what's the difference when you run the joint?

Parasites. The "Job Creators" have blood-sucked our Republic into genuinely Pre-Revolutionary times.



The Transnational Plutocracy will perish bloodily...for its rootlessness, occultism and mediocrity. It won't be missed.

Weren't companies like these complaining they were paying too much taxes and not getting enough big tax breaks...otherwise they would have to keep hiring overseas till we're all jobless?

I'm not sure whether to be pissed about this or not.

I want the evil US empire to eventually go bankrupt so that it collapses like the USSR did. So, if the US government is losing tax dollars to these companies, that's cool with me -- provided that the rest of us aren't simply being charged more in taxes to make up the difference.

In other words, if lower corporate taxes mean less tax revenue for ZOG, then that's great. But if lower corporate taxes mean higher taxes for the general population, with ZOG coming out essentially even in the end, then of course that's deplorable.

Yup that would about sum it up. But it is an 'and' not an 'or' situation

So then this is deplorable as I assure you corporations are not going to fiance warfare/austerity which is the plan: Warfare around the world for corporate/special interests and austerity at home for the citizen/proles who of course will pay the bill for the warfare around the world.
