Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

If your employer is a great corporation then they will not mind paying a fair portion of their profits toward taxes.
As they most certainly do, and like any person or company with a brain in their heads, takes advantage of every write off ALLOWED to them by law. Because nobody gets away with stealing from the IRS. They can simply TAKE what's owed when you try. "Not paying taxes" is a fairy tale talking point stupid people repeat. Companies get seized, and people go to jail all the time from that one.
If you don't like right offs and tax allowances, then maybe the same people that make our tax code the disaster it is, should have voted for the flat tax when it was brought up, but they didn't, because that would take away all the excuses, and THEY would have also been stuck paying their "fair share" along with everybody else, and they certainly didn't want that to happen.
We know there's been a lot of big corpos stealing from the IRS, because the IRS has announced a crackdown on high income earners. This means they won't be getting away anymore hopefully, but they were for a very long time.
