Last year there was an article on Costco's payment of tax and community and it left me surprised as heck to see what they payed. By your post here you would be as well.
Here is an article from this year. I'll try to find last years.

"We're constantly bombarded by rhetoric about how businesses are "obligated" by their shareholders to avoid taxes at all costs. Talking heads on TV constantly deride America's corporate tax rate, calling for it to be lowered so we can be more "competitive." Yet, the aforementioned corporations paid close to, and in some cases more than America's marginal 35% corporate tax rate. And each year, they continue to be extremely profitable without dodging taxes through offshore accounts."
If I had my way I wouldn't pay tax but donate to what I support in my community, schools, arts for example. It's off topic but that's what I'd do. Unfortunately some essentials would die off if everybody did that. |
Hmm, do you think that maybe, just maybe, that's a strategy that these evil corporations have employed?
Honestly, you don't understand tax laws or the accounting used so you resort to the old morality card. Just admit that.
