Ep 163: The Tax Robbery Was Worse Than You Imagined; A Progressive For The Texas U.S. Senate Seat
Episode 163: Support the podcast here: www.patreon.com/WorkingLifePodcast The GOP Tax Robbery Bill, the tax cuts that shoveled hundreds of billions of dollars into the hands of the very rich and corporations, was built on a complex set of lies. And, now with the close of 2019 and the numbers in on a full year of corporate 2018 tax returns, we have the numbers to prove it. It’s worse than you imagine—not only did hundreds of corporations pay a piddling amount of money to no taxes at all, but the Treasury Department, run by banker-to-the-elites Steven Mnuchin, created regulations and rules entirely out of thin air that gave even more money to corporations. Hear all the dirt in my in-depth conversation with Matt Gardner of the Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy.
