Yes, but corporations pay into the system in other ways. Take for example the time Duke Energy had a big coal ash spill into a river. They took the income resources they had and not only paid a fair fine price, cleaned up the…
Wait. No they didn’t. They passed on all the costs to their customers. Fortunately those customers were able to use the free market and choose another provider…
Wait. No, they can’t. Huh. That IS a freeloader.
I hate you. Wait no I don’t 😂
Climate Town, is this you??
Lol, no, but maybe I was channeling him. Great Youtuber.
I’d actually be willing to bet that we (the US taxpayer) paid those corporations for the privilege of their continued existence
I was sceptical about the lack of sources so I DDG’d it:

Damn, Sam Reichs father is really big on social media
He worked for multiple presidential administrations and was in the cabinet https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Reich
Yeah, that was just a stupid Dropout joke ^^
Stupid question: If undocumented, how are they verifiably paying anything close to this figure in taxes? Pls respond
Not all taxes are collected, much of what we pay in taxes is added on to the cost of things.
For example, sales tax.
Its funny how much owning a successful business sound exactly like being a lazy, work-shy layabout who does nothing while living off of other people’s hard work.
How much was paid with employee income tax? How much was paid with VAT?
How much did immigrants take out of the system?
This is the most biased one sided comparison.
It’s strange how in the when businesses employee people and that wage gets taxed that’s 100% on the employee. But when a business sells a product and it gets taxed that’s 100% on the customer.
Imma go ahead and say the income tax & VAT combined don’t equal 97B.
Additionally, imma guess immigrants took out much less than the 97B they put into the system.
Fact check me.
That’s not how fact checking works.
Someone’s made a stupid text on image post incorrectly comparing things and didn’t even back that up.
Here’s the study. Robert Reich is a former Secretary of Labor known for pushing worker’s rights. He’s generally pretty credible.
Funny how that person responded to everyone except for you. You being the person who provided evidence that likely proves them completely wrong.
Mustn’t draw attention to the argument that beats mine.
I guess that’s how fact checking works for them.
Racism is either a symptom or a tool:
Those who cant make sense of their situation being unsatisfactory may fall prey to it to soothe themselves.
Those who hoard all of the worlds wealth use it to distract from that fact.
Worth noting that a lot of the people raging about immigrants don’t see themselves as racist.
Or themselves as immigrants, for that matter.
A German settler calling a Hispanic migrant “illegal” really says something about the legal and social zeitgeist.
Or a white person as an immigrant.
If you apply liberal’s superficial understanding of what white supremacism actually is hard enough it’s very easy to end up in a situation where nobody could possibly be a white supremacist.
Posts like this are important, but unfortunately in vain, I’m afraid. Those who still don’t understand it will never understand it. I think they don’t want to. I don’t get it.
I’d say it’s still important to post and talk about, not for the people who know and don’t care, but for the people who don’t know and do care.
the US Constitution puts the ENTIRE TAX BILL as the responsibilty of corporations, this was illegally changed during WW2. This is why prior to WW2 there was no income tax. We are living in a fascist hell hole because we are not following the legal Constitution. We are following a partial fake. The full text of the original Constitution is available when you read the Constitution, then turn it upside down and read the additional text which is in Latin. Democrats and Republicans are fully aware and refuse to reinstate the Full Constitution. They are both Traitors to the Republic.
Please get help or take your medication. The Constitution does not have a magic Latin section.
Is there, and I’m just guessing here, a medication that you may need a lot of and have taken none of? Or maybe too much of?
