Facebook could face extra $5bn tax bill after IRS investigation
- xj9 10y agoGood. Well, it would be good if we used our taxes for good things. I guess Uncle Sam just got a shitload of new bombs.
- jgalt212 10y agoThat's a silly comment. Taxes are inevitable and they have to come from somewhere. If powerful shops like AAPL, FB, and GOOG can cheat on their taxes, someone else who does not have the wherewithal to "cheat" on their taxes (e.g. the upper middle class) must be overtaxed. It's the upper middle class that's getting screwed, after all unlike the poor they have the money to pay for the bombs you mentioned but no access to the tax dodging strategies large companies and the super rich have.
