The '17 tax bill cut corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% (in the 1950s it was over 50%). The amount corporations *actually* pay is far less (i.e. Amazon found enough loopholes to pay *zero* in federal taxes). The corporate tax rate should return to at least 35%. #EconomicJustice

If loopholes are the problem, why not just close the loopholes rather than increase the rates?

Even witthout the loopholes it's an unfair rate. Years ago corporate taxes made up 33 per cent of public treasury; today only 11 per cent. Why such low rates? Because they're able to basically buy Congress, pure and simple.
