AMAZON Will Pay $0 IN FED Income Taxes for 2nd Year In A Row With Profits Doubled
2019-02-14
Corporations do NOT pay taxes, consumers pay taxes.
[Daily Caller] Amazon will pay $0 in federal income taxes for the second year in a row after its total profits doubled from $5.6 billion in 2018 to $11.2 billion in 2019.

Amazon’s corporate tax filings reveal a federal income tax rebate of $129 million, or negative one percent because of unspecified tax credits and a tax break, according to a report from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy.

"From 2011 to 2016," Politifact explains, "Amazon reported a total $8.2 billion of pre-tax income and $944 million in federal income taxes, which amounts to a tax rate of 11.4 percent in the last five years."
