I know what you mean David and before turning on the podcast I had my mind made up, but some of the guys ideas really made you think.

You’d be surprised how many really intelligent people think the .gov has an infinite supply of money that they dole out to the most worth causes. And that’s just the ignorant, dependent populace that the .gov wants to govern.

Teul.....he actually says where he will get the money from. I could never trust him, but the interview wasn’t what I expected.

Companies like Amazon that paid zero in taxes (which I have a hard time believing) and Wall Street transactions. Teul is correct in saying that it will eventually trickle down. I guess what I’m getting at here is it is easier to see how some folks can be drawn to Bernie after listening to him outside the debate platform. Listen for yourselves when you have 50 minutes of life to piss away.

I never understood why people have always been hung up on some corporation NOT paying taxes.
They pay their fair share of taxes, it just may not be a capitol gains or in some other catagory that the federal government can gobble up.
Big companies employ at $#!+ ton of people and generate a lot of cash flow for other entities by buying stuff, infrastructure, supplies, vehicles, fuel, tractors, paper, and on and on and on.
Small companies do it also. I use to have a small company that paid my salary and another person, i bought a lot of equipment to run the business, bought gas, paid fees,etc.................the business paid NO taxes, but i on the other hand paid taxes from my salary.
If i end up with money at the end of the year i upgraded equipment, expanded everywhere i could to keep from sending the government money. Its all legit, i just chose to pay the required tax in a different category that benefited me and my business.

If Amazon has $200 B at the end of the year i say put in new warehouses, buy new equipment, employ more people............spread that crap around.
Just my 2 cents and im NOT an accountant, lawyer, or person with average intelligence.
