      Are we?

      GE made nearly 7 billion dollars in 2023. Do you know how much tax they paid? They didn’t, they got a refund of over 400 million dollars.

      Tell me again that tax evasion isn’t a real problem.

        i didn’t say tax evasion isn’t the real problem. i said that the meme is blaming the wrong people.

        it’s GE’s (And politicians) fault that GE is evading taxes, not the IRS.
