"It is a misconception that Amazon pays no taxes at all. Amazon collects and remits sales taxes, pays payroll taxes, and pays federal income taxes. However, the company has historically used various legal tax breaks and deductions to significantly lower its federal corporate income tax rate, sometimes to near zero. "



Companies like Amazon and Amazon particularly, has made it possible for millions of small entrepreneurs and artists to reach global markets. It has facilitated the businesses of countless others by giving them access to global supply chains.  They have created millions of jobs and generated billions in revenue, profit, taxes and income.  There is no downside.  And it is that spirit of facilitating business growth that has made America the most powerful and richest country on Earth.  We want to keep it that way. And our wealth is for us, not to feed every Third World rapist and parasite that decides to sneak under the fence.
