Many of America’s largest corporations shift a surprising portion of their profits overseas to avoid paying taxes. Even more surprisingly, that’s a legal thing to do.

The issue is clearly government overspending. The fact that taxes can be eliminated is proof of government greed, they have been immensely wasteful. It's just smart to avoid taxes, we live in a world with plenty of countries and if they want to more tax victims they need to compete in the marketplace of countries and actually make country worth doing business in rather than being so eager to burn their country to the ground while wealth flees to fiscally responsible governments.

So two points: One, you can create 20 thousand job openings but it doesn't mean they'll be filled. Two, automation is the main cause for unemployment; followed by Social Justice Warrior rhetoric clashing with its favorite twin Conservatism.
Why does Cardi B sound like she just took a d|ldo out of her mouth.
They're spending her fucking money on helping billionaires and making weapons lol Her fucking money does not go where it's needed :-(

Please Do A Piece on Michael Jackson Hi, I’m writing to you because Last Week Tonight as opposed to other such shows actually cares about issues rather than chasing the headlines. It has been 11 years since Michael Jackson passed away yet to this day what the common consensus is that he is a taboo subject for many. I recall you guys once did a piece on Public Shaming. Michael Jackson was a genius, an abused child. He was strange. He was one of the few major stars from the 80s who came out of the 80s without a heroine addiction. He in his own way did many, Many strange things, but so do most other superstars. And more than others he actually cared. About children, about the earth. About the issues we are discussing to this day. While Icons like Freddie Mercury, Elvis Presley, Prince, Beetles and many more are known for their good works, Michael is known for the something which he has repeatedly been acquitted for. It’s the truth that anyone looking for will find instantly but due to the “where there is smoke there is a fire” narrative, even 11 years after his death, the new media treats him like a criminal. All his trial pages are open for the public to read. He WAS weird. Making a ranch called neverland, hanging out with children. Trusting people he shouldn’t. But I urge you please cover him, hear beyond the noise like you guys often do. The most successful African American Artist of all time was a humble man child, who respected women, loved children and cared about our environment. He was not a heroine junkie, a private man who did not share his disease even all the way back in 1993 even though he was accused of wanting to become a “White Man”. He was eccentric. Hanging out with animals and caring about them. theobjectivestandard.com/2020/02/justice-for-michael-jackson/ This article covers multiple sources, some of which I had read previously. Michael Jackson was a multi talented millionaire pop star, who was not an alcoholic, was a caring father, a filial son, Treated women with respect, cared about the planet and it’s beings. The press that constantly kept DASHING him, had found a way to subvert their guilt. All those years of calling him a “Jacko”, “monkey” and many more hurtful things was justified if he was a paedophile. They NEEDED him to be guilty. Such a man cannot exist in Hollywood. Such public shaming had allowed and to this day allows Michael to be a victim to all this slander. Please do a piece, if not one that exonerates him then one that once and for all cements the fact the Michael Jackson, the greatest pop star, the first African American Idol was a paedophile. Not through unknown sources or flimsy headlines but through concrete proof. A news echoing in a closed chamber will not reach anyone, most fans who what to know the truth know it, other people will read the headlines but not the explanations. It’s about time the general public knows. Please do a piece on Michael, the blatant mistreatment by the media, The systematic racism he faced during his trials. Please don’t let the first African American Singer be remembered for the things he did not do, He was weird, weird enough to annoy Freddie Mercury with Bubbles feedbacks, weird enough to let kids crack raw eggs over Michael Jackson, Weird enough to play water balloons with children. But he was not a paedophile and the world needs to acknowledge that. He was in no way a “Perfect Human” but he tried his best to live right and we should not punish him for doing that. On this year please exonerate this Black man, the Justice System has done it two decades ago, it’s about time everyone else does. Please do a piece on Michael Jackson.

For those curious: Cardi B taxes are ~36.8% of her income. I'm not saying she was intentionally inflating that to 40%, I only wanted to give a more precise amount to those who wondered whether that was true. I took that percentage from a public estimate of her getting 28mln in a year, then applied tax brackets and looked at the marginal ratio.

This is where he gets simplistic. There is a great argument for all corporations to behave like "Pass Through Entities" (like LLC and S-corporations) and never be charged a corporate profits tax. Let the profit flow straight through and tax the beneficiaries of that profit at the receiving end. Taxing the corporation itself makes no sense, until you deal with foreign holders.... There it becomes tricky, but much less a maze than it currently is.
The corporate tax rate should be zero... Change my mind.
Johnny you stole my cereal Joke! I've been teaching kids for years that if eating cereal, you'd get more nutritional value of you just ate the box. Unless of course you are eating Weetabix, in which case it just tastes like you are eating the box. When can I expect my royalty cheques??
wait wait wait, "our focus is on helping the folks who work in the mail rooms... the people who like me best." (2017) That sure as hell didn't age well.

Muthafuckas calling my house a pirate haven leave with a split lip...and sometimes a spot marked "X" 😘👽🎩🍭🍻🍑🍆💪🙈🐐

Does anyone have the link to the full version of the operetta? Its actually kinda good
The understood stick anecdotally unfasten because season spindly head modulo a illustrious antelope. ragged, adjoining link

No wonder our national debt is so high. All these companies get to swindle themselves out of paying taxes. The more money you make the more you save on taxes.
well, you also killed 1,000,000 iraqis.
🎶remember that you’re not rich enough to be affected by a marginal tax rate🎶
So when they do it it's just smart business, but when I do it it's money laundering.
I can't get over how much john looks like steve mnuchin
Probably about to go bankrupt and afraid of the Feds investigating their dirty earnings. Out of all those billions on trillions of dollars most likely somebody got paid to off people secretly not known to anyone because some medical files stating death by natural causes. With that kind of money they would want to hide their money because they might find it addicting to be able to take people out of pictures on the fly. Plus their money could be counterfiet and they're just washing the money in a place they can gain value to their fake monies. Like giving someone a candy wrapper in Europe to turn it into the worth of gold. Blame the metric system. If over-seas they know it's dirty money, it doesn't matter, it'll go in the bank. But if the business is dirty on domestic soil and goes under investigation then their assets could be seized; even their accounts overseas. It's proof of laundering and treason. How is it possible that their is trillions of USD and there's still poor people? Monopolys love hoarding money, and now in the computer times they even enjoy hoarding fake money, just to scare people. Bah-hum-bug Scrooge old white dudes who could care less about ugly minorities, compared to their well privileged white skinned childrens. They loves the moneys. They avid restaurants because maybe they only know how to barbecue hotdogs and burgers. Digital counterfeit numbers could be flooding into honest businesses just by a swipe of a credit card, and a transfer from their offshore account with all that fake junk.
Remember when Americans threw tea into the harbour because they were sick of being corporate slaves? How about the war they started so they could be independent from the companies who sent them to the new world from overseas. But it’s cool I mean fuck your countries ideals when daddy got me an iPhone UwU
John Oliver acknowledging his doppelgänger, Steven Mnuchin is everything.
And then people complain when others want better healthcare and livable wages. If these corporations actually paid their taxes it can go a long way to helping the economy
I'm watching this again after a local news reported about those long, looong food-lines in Texas.
Cardy Bee, is the most disgusting human being.
Didn't know anything about her before now and now I hate her.
Two years later, I pay more taxes and rich people don't pay at all.
Fuck. Cardi B. I pay 40 percent too but I'm not a millionaire. Quit your bitching you annoying bitch. What are you talented at?
We're gonna say it. That Steven Mnuchin clip looked like a cgi segment from a weird video game.
Now I don't believe in reptilians, but these CEOs are hella close to convincing me
These tax cuts led to the lowest unemployment among black and latino people
These are the people who own the politicians... explains so much doesn't it?!
I thought "Panama Scoot" sounded like what a jaguar would do when it rubbed its ass on your carpet.
The thing to remember about Cardi B is she's aggressively fucking stupid.
Cardi is an idiot.
