REPUBLICAN TRICKLE-DOWN ECONOMY IS WORKING







About four hundred of Americas largest corporations paid an average tax rate of 11.3% on their profits last year; roughly half the rate paid before the 2018 massive Republican tax cut.   Ninety-one Fortune 500 companies paid no tax at all. 


Now if Republicans could just eliminate Obama Care and privatize (turn over to for-profit insurance companies) Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security their lives would be complete, and they could ride the Valkyries to Republican Valhalla and be allowed to kiss the ass of Ronald Reagan.

    What really pisses me off is most of those corporations that didn't pay any taxes get a fucking REBATE. How the hell can they get a rebate when they paid $0 tax? I should try that.

    ...and defeat the original purpose of Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security in the process.
    Might as well eliminate them altogether if they're to only exist as total paradoxes, cheap imitations of their former selves (complete with a plethora of "Catch-22"s).

    Then again, the world seems to have done similar things to most all other elements over the years (housing, the airlines, popular music, television, movies, education, and so forth)
