Yes.

That’s not the info shown on this chart. And worth noting that that would be roughly the effective tax rate of someone earning 200k. That’s not a poor person by any stretch, but definitely nowhere near 19 billion.

Corporations don’t pay income taxes, they pay corporate taxes. Income taxes are paid by Google’s employees.

The federal corporate tax rate is 21%, and Alphabet Inc. is registered in Delaware so they don’t pay state tax. If you make 45k a year or more (after deductions), your marginal tax rate (not effective tax) is lower than Google’s.

Why does Google pay a lower tax rate than I do when they make more than a million times what I make?

And Swampscott, and Natick, and Mattapan, and most of the Buzzards Bay communities…

California’s population this year is lower than it was in 2016. So why the hell has the median house price nearly doubled in that time???

If I chop off all your limbs you’ll adapt, doesn’t mean it’ll be a good experience.

Always have been.

I mean, that’s technically correct.
