Fair share?
Well of course that’s okay… 
Who are the 45%? And even if the revenues are highest is that justification for some corporations to not pay any and in some cases get money back?
You don’t know how much any C Corps pay because that information is not public.
What C Corp is getting a refund??
You do realize that only publicly traded companies are required to disclose financials…right Zippy?
You do realized that not all companies are publicly traded…right?
You do realized that the vast majority of companies (AS IN 99%) are NOT PUBLICLY TRADED…RIGHT?
Your vast physic powers allow you to know what private companies pay in taxes…right?
I swear to christ, I don’t know how USMCCDS puts up with your inept ass.
Are the top corporations in America C corps or just plain corporations? Boeing got a refund.
Companies make a profit before…salary’s/wages/interest/depreciation/rent and taxes other than federal.
Do you understand what a deduction is?
Do you have any comprehension of anything you post?
Plus, what about the taxes that their millions of employees pay from those good jobs?
That is billions in taxes.
Sanders does not have a clue how this works, because he has never had a paycheck outside of the government.
You knew that right? I’ll say it again, he HAS NEVER DRAWN A PAYCHECK EXCEPT THROUGH TAXES.
For REALNEWZ
What is a “plain corporation”. Are you serious?
Senator Sanders should probably take an accounting class. As usual, he is misinforming his followers that haven’t the slightest clue what is actually going on.
Completely disingenuous on Sanders part. I guarantee if I pull the financial statements of the 10 C Corps. he listed they’ll have NOLs and probably enormous amounts of money sunk into capital projects.
Not to mention the payroll taxes companies pay…
This probably my favorite post on T-nation ever.
I can’t think of a better example of how completely ignorant the typical Bernie supports is (and Bernie himself is) when it comes to anything related to business or economics.

It’s even worse than that… Publically traded corporation, AKA plain ol corporations, AKA C Corps are only required to disclose their financials to the SEC on their 10-K. They are not required to disclose their 1120’s, which is the IRS form used to determine their tax liability. The accounting for the two forms (10-K and 1120) is not the same because they follow separate rules. GAAP for 10-ks and the IRS codification for the 1120s. Different rules = different outcomes.
Yet, somehow TEH BURNZ KNOWZZZ
Sanders making stuff up for political gain, nahhhhhhhhhhhh.
This is from VOX…

So 8% aren’t willing to pay at all? I guess his policies are in trouble now. Funny that the $1,000 more in taxes is what he has proposed. What do people get in return? His policy study is showing a $5,000 return. It is about using tax dollars efficiently.
And never mind the rest of the industrialized world has some form of single payor system and pays less for their healthcare. Oh wait a second, weren’t you the brilliant one who found out that Norway pays more. Oh no, 1 country and you didn’t take the time to find out what their plan covers. I bet it covers far more than what the average person’s health insurance plan.
Are you insinuating it is right for mega-corporations to not pay any taxes and even get a refund?
So because employees of a corporation pays taxes that makes it okay for the corporation not to pay fed tax?
