    You have no clue as to how business works. None.

      As to independent, um...that's why they are independent, like myself.
      My point is this, when the President of the United States says things, it holds weight. Especially to their supporters. If POTUS says drink bleach, some will do it. If POTUS goes around pushing election fraud conspiracy, some will believe him. At what point do the rubes admit they have been duped ? The fact that they will not admit this is where we are at right now.
      Suggesting someone's intelligence is based on their political affiliation demonstrates your inability to defend your position. You may have been hanging around Billy to long and are devolving into mundane insults.

      In closing all I have to say is this:
      Im rubber, you're glue. Whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you

      See you on the playground slim


      I had a feeling that you were an independent from most of what I have sen you post. As for Libertarians, I happen to know a few. What they support by doctrine is a very limited federal government. Their biggest problem is that they do not have a good cadre of experienced politicians. As a result they usually end up with candidates on the ballot are either Democrats or Republicans who can't cut it with their actually such as Gary Johnson for President in 2016.

      You notice who it is that almost always likes what you post? A Liberal Canadian who only likes that you criticize the Conservatives on this site. Not the type of person that s true independent would want to be associated with.

          I live in California and when I order from Amazon I pay the same sales tax rate as I do when I purchase from a local retailer. And if they get they get it wrong either too much or too little can result in huge penalties paid to the State of California plus if it is too much they have to refund the difference to me or if it is too little they have to pay the difference plus penalties to the appropriate local government.

            That's because Amazon actually owed money to the federal government in 2019. After two straight years of paying $0 in U.S. federal income tax, Amazon was on the hook for a $162 million bill in 2019, the company said in an SEC filing on Thursday.

            Of course, $162 million is still just a fraction of the $13.9 billion in pre-tax income Amazon reported for 2019 — roughly 1.2%, in fact. The federal corporate tax rate is 21%, but as in the past, Amazon likely employed various tax credits and deductions to reduce its federal tax bill. Amazon also reported $280.5 billion in total revenue in 2019.

              Ok........... I'll do it.


              Amazon DOES pay taxes!

              Corporate filings show that Amazon payed $756 million for state and international taxes in 2019!
              Amazon has also paid $2.6 billion in corporate taxes since 2016.

              A statement from Amazon:
              Congress designed tax laws to encourage companies to reinvest in the American economy. We have. $200 billion in investments since 2011 and 300,000 US jobs.


              On top of that....Amazon remits taxes to all the different jurisdictions (states/ countries/ etc.), based off of those jurisdiction's tax laws in place, for online purchases.

              Here is what really happened.

              Amazon Corporate Tax Avoidance Under Trump-GOP Tax Law


              U.S. Pretax Income $20.2 billion $13.3 billion $11.2 billion $44.7 billion
              Current Federal Income Tax $1.8 billion $162 million $-129 million $1.9 billion
              Effective Federal Income Tax Rate 9.4% 1.2% -1.2% 4.3%

              The actual corporate tax rate is 21% and as you can see amazon paid only 4.3% over the three years.

                  It's a wonder you can even go outside with all the fear you have for things that you consider different. No wonder you are whining all the time.

                    I'm not scared of things that aren't real. Just because liberals pull something out of thin air, doesn't mean it's real. Most of that shit should be defined as mental illness.

                      Most of it IS a mental illness.

                      Studies show there is a link between transgenderism and Schizophrenia. Most trans people also suffer from severe depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and psychosis.

                      Rates of depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, phobia, self-harm, suicidal thoughts/ suicide, and alcohol and drug dependence are significantly higher in homosexual people compared to their heterosexual counterparts.

                        Democrats/liberals are afraid of male masculinity. They are trying to emasculate the American male. Liberals much prefer someone like copier addict who is more than willing to give up his balls. And I won't even mention what he's admitted to in the past.

                          Nothing will happen thanks to offshore accounts, tax havens and shell companies.

                          A United States company buying products from overseas would have to pay US taxes on the profits, but to avoid this, it may buy the products through a non-resident shell company based in a tax haven, where it is described as an offshore company. The shell company would purchase the products in its name, mark up the products and sell them on to the US company, thereby transferring the profit to the tax haven.

                            So you are in favor of the rich paying less in taxes. Currently they are actually paying more than their fair share.

                            The top 1%, you know those people than you liberals are always talking about, make 20.9% of the total income in America but pay 25.3% of the total taxes collected. Their fair share would be only 20.9% of the total tasxes.
