  4. It’s not the tax cuts, it’s the tax rebates. They get tax rebates when they make a loss for obvious reasons, amazon just has a lot of outstanding money owed.

  5. They still paid other types of tax (payroll, income, capital gains. The only tax they didn’t is corporate tax. You don’t pay corporate tax either

  6. You don’t pay taxes on losses. Losses carry forward. So a company can not pay taxes if they lose enough money in the past, as amazon has done
