My whole point of the quote from Robert Reich is that these companies can afford to be taxed more. They'll spend millions into think tanks to come up with ways to convince you that taxation is theft and communism. They'll point out all of these social safety net programs that are eating up the system when in fact, none of them would need to be cut without the exploitive and exclusive Bush and Trump tax cuts. Those companies have proven that they NEVER needed that money. One of the selling points of the tax cuts was the extra money that they were going to have to create more jobs. More GOP bullshit.
Did nt forget it is more than just taxes. As inflation took hold with rising prices these companies were raking in record profit. Luvnit likes to take the simplistic approach and blame the entirety of inflation on energy policy when in reality most of it has been driven by price increases post pandemic that went straight to the bottom line
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
