Episode 130: The Corporate Game: Stealing From Us Again; A Political Reporter Chat
Episode 130: Our friends at the Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy, my go-to folks when it comes to tax policy, put out another fantastic report called “Corporate Tax Avoidance Remains Rampant Under New Tax Law”. I know—you’re shocked, just shocked that the 2017 GOP tax fraud bill is letting corporations steal from us day after day…steal because tax avoidance by corporations. To dig into this robbery, I turn to a frequent guest, the Oracle himself, ITEP’s Matt Gardner. Then, I decided to rope in for a conversation Alex Seitz-Wald, a main political reporter for NBC and MSNBC. Alex rings me up now and again to get chat about stories he’s working on, and, now and again, he makes the mistake of choosing to actually quote me—accurately I would quickly add, and with my permission. So, I thought I’d turn the tables on him a bit—though not for the purposes in engaging in bashing of traditional media, which I’ve engaged in a lot and for which there is plenty of fodder to do so on a regular basis.
