    We want all the tax giveaways of the past fifty years revoked. NONE of them help the economy in any way and have caused insurmountable destruction to civilization.

    And no, it isn’t “reinvestment”, it’s technofeudaliam and tax dodging. It is literal theft from the country.

      I’m fine with stopping new tax exemptions, but the ones we already gave were just have to live with. It’s not right to ask for it all back.

      Yes, it is reinvestment, new ideas aren’t free, they cost startup money, it costs money to develop new products and ideas, it’s literally reinvestment of profits back into the company.

        Jeff Bezos does not reinvest his money back into any company. The company profits do that.

          And? His wealth is tied directly to your much Amazon is worth, and it’s worth more of it is successful in reinvesting into itself

        It IS right to ask for it all back because it was NEVER deserved. It was nothing but crony corruption from Day 1. We HAVE history on this. You are not old enough to understand any of it.

          It was given and received, there are no take backs. If you want to complain, complain to the ones who allowed it in the first place.

            “No takebacks”??!

            So what you’re telling me is that you don’t know anything about the law either.

              Where does the law say we can take it all away and require back pay when the other party didn’t break any rules?

                  This doesn’t happen with financial assets though, at least not that I’ve heard of. Can you name an example of " we are going to give you a break on these taxes or fees" then that turns into “you did nothing wrong, but we are going to want those 20 years of unpaid taxes/fees that we told you that you didn’t need to pay, we changed our minds”.

                    Are you on drugs? Are you just making stuff up as you go? Where in THE ROYAL FUCK did you even come up with that?? Who even said that?? What the fuck are you talking about??

                    Classic fascist tactic: insert words never said or ideas never presented into the dialogue. This is how I know you’ve lost.

                    Repeal all tax breaks enacted since Reagan is not a complicated concept. It’s really, REALLY simple.
