    Businesses are still going to negotiate no taxes with the local government. A millionaire getting a charitable deductible is nothing compared to the billions Amazon saves by getting lower taxes in exchange for locating hubs in a particular city.

      Lots of politicians know and admit those are bullshit…

      Like most issues, it would be solved if at least one of the only two parties was progressive.

      Neoliberals and republicans uniting to fuck over the average American, doesn’t mean the average American will always lose.

      Just means we have a bunch of politicians to replace.
