All printed out of thin air, backed by nothing and loaned at interest. Banks are an enormous Ponzi. The US needs to issue its own currency. Get rid of the FED and the banking cartels.

How much should be the additional profit tax if it exceeds 10% of the capital?

What additional profit tax are you referring to?

JPM is the largest bank in the world not just in the US FYI

I'm sure the $12B they got in 2008 didn't hurt, either.

Anyway, I like the use of the gradient to differentiate the expenses from the profit.

They got $25 billion. But they paid it back plus interest.

Good to know; thanks.

19% tax rate? That's lower than most middle-lower class families...

Why are our tax laws backward?

What are you talking about? Most middle-lower class families have a tax rate in the single digits.

It’s not. 19% is much higher than middle class people pay

Also, corporate rates are calculated differently than individuals, it’s hard to compare the two

current tax code:

22% on income between $41,776 and $89,075 which is the lower-middle class in most states.

24% for upper-middle class between $89,076 and $170,050

I understand that it’s a progressive tax rate and only dollars above this range are taxed at this rate, but it’s still criminal that corporations are keeping records profits at lower than the rate for an average individuals tax bracket.

Families might get deductions/rebates, but this is the standard for individuals within this tax bracket. Lower than a multibillion dollar corporation.

I understand that corporate rate are calculated differently but the bottom line is that 19% of their profits are lost to tax, while an individual making $41,776 - 89,075, will lose 22% of that bracket income to tax. Corporations should at least have a higher bracket at the top, especially when tens of billions are the profit margins.
