  1.  @MetallicaRocksss  income inequality isn’t a bad thing. You SHOULD get paid more for harder work - and if you run a extremely successful business like amazon you SHOUOD be able to earn as much as you like.

  3.  @dylanc9145  they pay for the military and police through taxes... businesses pay way more taxes than most people. Poor people don’t pay taxes, does that mean that they do t deserve police, the military, Medicaid, SNAP, ect?

  4.  @dylanc9145  and the other half? Payroll taxes, corporate taxes, capital gains tax. That’s without taking into account that businesses pay more income tax than the average person.

  5.  @dylanc9145  tax is complicated. Corporations pay a percentage of their profit (currently 22% - deductions) in corporate taxes. They then pay out dividends, which are subject to income tax. They also pay 7.5% payroll taxes for every employee, property and state taxes, ect. Over all - businesses pay a majority of tax, most rich people are business owners - and they pay most of the tax. The top 1% pays more income tax than the bottom 90% combined. Add on the other types of tax and they are paying more than their fair share

  6. Obama didn’t slow military spending at all, and low interest rates help bolster investments and grow the economy.

  7. Or you could give all of that $370 billion to the government and they would spend it within a month. That’s without taking I to account that it’s not $370 billion in cash, it’s mainly in shares which can’t be liquidated. Jeff Bezos “only” has $2.5 billion in liquid wealth.

  10.  @dylanc9145  stick to your ad hominem, because your argument is truely flawed. And you want to talk about sales taxes? They are even more insignificant than the corporate taxes you called significant in a prior comment.
