Tesla paid less taxes than me. And you.
Yet their CEO has almost unlimited power compared to you. Maybe we should all stop paying
And the same as me!
But then I don't live in America.
Though that doesn't always stop them expecting someone to pay taxes
~~and~~ or you. I assure you I have paid more in taxes in one single year than Tesla and Musk have paid in many years combined.
Welfare Queen.
Rules for thee, but not for me.
I dont understand why people are not more upset about this and rioting. I guess everyone is just burnt out tbh.
Somehow the oligarchs who steal from us managed to comvince the masses that some poor and exploited immigrants are the problem.
Think of all the money we would have if we didn't have to pay taxes!
Think of all the healthcare we'd have of everyone paid in!
The only reason this company is profitable.
One day, we'll just take it out of his hide.
At this rate, that is unlikely.
Why would you say that? This administration is playing with a potential revolution in Minneapolis and is facing down a national labor shutdown on Friday. I know in general things are bleak but resistance over the past year has been growing quite a lot.
No one is going to be touching billionaires.
This is the one time I would tolerate Scrappy Doo. "Lemme at em! Lemme at em!"
Comedy aside, I’d donate to anyone’s legal fee who solved this problem…
Who was being comedic? I agree with Eddie Izzard. I'd shoot Scrappy Doo in a heartbeat....
Oh I see what you're getting at.
Cheers, m8
Personally, I think the goal of all companies should be to pay $0 in taxes, and our tax code should be written in a way that encourages them to spend their revenue on their employees.
The group explained that Tesla used accelerated depreciation, reducing the value of its capital assets, while also slashing its tax bill with tax breaks for its executive stock options

If we did, we'd have precious little money for infrastructure.
That money would be taxed as income tax by the employees.
How would this system work?
Not sure what you mean. Companies pay $0 in taxes all the time, but by using BS accounting tricks like Tesla is now. Instead that money would go to employees who pay taxes.
