> I'm glad Amazon doesn't pay that much in taxes. 1.2T in tax money per year goes to the US Military, which has been responsible for more death and destruction on this planet than could ever be imagined previously. That's arrant nonsense. Stalin's Holodomor killed 7-10 million people, more than the U.S. military has ever killed, and it starved millions more almost to death. Mao's Great Leap Forward resulted in the deaths of 15-30 million people, more still. Moreover, the U.S. military is not currently responsible for wanton death and destruction. It has spent the last decade and a half trying to support civilian government and the rule of law both at home & abroad.
