berniesanders.com/us-government-loses-much-111-billion-annually-due-corporate-tax-dodging/The US Government Loses As Much As $111 Billion Annually Due to Corporate Tax Dodging Posted on April 16, 2016 by Pro-Market writers Report: For every dollar spent on lobbying, the 50 largest corporations received more than $4,000 in government support. Source: oxfam The U.S. government is losing as much as $111 billion each year due to corporations “shifting” profits to offshore tax havens, according to a recent paper by Kimberly A. Clausing of Reed College. Clausing found that by 2012, the annual revenue cost to the US government due to corporate tax dodging had amounted to $77-111 billion. For the world as a whole, she estimated revenue losses to be above $280 billion. (Last year, IMF economists Ernesto Crivelli, Ruud De Mooij, and Michael Keen estimated that developing countries lose $105 billion each year due to tax base erosion). Clausing writes that “erosion and profit shifting is a larger problem today than even before,” and concludes that it “must result in lower government spending, higher tax revenues from other sources, or increased budget deficits.” This week, Clausing’s figures were the basis of a new report released by anti-poverty charity Oxfam, which estimated that the 50 largest corporations in the United States have hidden more than $1.4 trillion in offshore tax havens, all the while collecting trillions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies. The report, a financial analysis of America’s 50 largest public companies—multinational corporations like Alphabet, Apple, Goldman Sachs, and Disney—details an “opaque and secretive network” of 1,608 disclosed subsidiaries based in tax havens like the Cayman Islands, in addition to thousands of additional subsidiaries that these companies “may have failed to disclose to the Securities and Exchange Commission due to weak reporting requirements.” The report estimates that the US loses $111 billion a year and that developing countries lose $100 billion annually due to corporate tax dodging. From 2008-2014, according to the report, the top 50 American corporations reported $4 trillion in profits and paid $1 trillion in taxes globally, with only $412 billion of that going to the federal US government. At the same time, they received $11.2 trillion from the government “in the form of loans, loan guarantees, and bailout assistance,” in addition to $337 billion in tax breaks. The use of tax havens allowed the surveyed firms to reduce their overall effective tax rate to 26.5 percent on average, 8.5 percent lower than the statutory rate of 35 percent. For each dollar they paid in federal taxes, according to the report, the top 50 US firms received $27 in federal support.
This money allowed firms to “retain a multibillion-dollar army of lobbyists to influence federal policy,” according to Oxfam. Their investment in lobbying turned out to have an “incredible return”: The top 50 US firms spent $2.6 billion on lobbying the federal government. For every dollar they spent on lobbying, they received (collectively) $130 in tax breaks and more than $4,000 in federal assistance, such as loans, loan guarantees, and bailouts.

With the Panama Papers still fresh on everybody’s minds, here’s a video of presidential candidate Bernie Sanders speaking about the free trade agreement with Panama way back in 2011. In the video, he notes that the trade agreement appears to be of little benefit to the much larger US economy-. If the average American doesn’t benefit, who does? Wealthy Americans and large corporations use the small country to avoid paying taxes… and the trade agreement, according to Sanders, made the situation worse. The free trade agreement represents the government purposely tying its own hands so that it cannot act against the tax havens in Panama, and by extension the corporations and wealthy individuals. “Combating tax haven abuse in Panama would be a violation of this free trade agreement, exposing the US to fines from international authorities”. He concludes that with a 14 trillion dollar national debt back then, now over 19 trillion dollars, America cannot afford to let these tax havens carry on with their business.On the other hand, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s relationship with tax havens seems to be strikingly different- though she hasn’t been directly tied to the specific Panamanian law firm that is at the center of this scandal, rich individuals with close ties to her have used it for their own purposes. Though she has condemned the “outrageous tax havens and loopholes that super-rich people across the world are exploiting”, she and Bill Clinton have 5 shell companies in Delaware.Sources: Miami Herald, The Week anonhq.com/video-bernie-sanders-blasted-panama-free-trade-agreement-nearly-5-years-panama-papers/

...Digging deep into Hillary's connections to Wall Street, Abby Martin reveals how the Clinton's multi-million-dollar political machine operates.www.facebook.com/facebook/videos/10153231379946729/Did anybody know she actually started as republican? Plus election fraud on video:
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS: Chicago Board of Elections audits Chicago votes. In one precinct the actual tally was 56.7% in Bernie's favor. After count was manipulated by machine he lost with 47.5% of vote. A whopping 18.4% swing. It gets interesting around the 24 minute mark. video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSNTauWPkTc&sns=emIn one example noted during video, 21 Bernie votes were erased and 49 Hillary votes added to audit tally in order to match machine count. In this one precinct, this change from the actual results accounted for nearly 20% of overall votes cast. The actual tally was 56.7% in Bernie's favor. After count was manipulated by machine he lost with 47.5% of vote. A whopping 18.4% swing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr in the video is going forward with lawsuit over this, she is on facebook. Lora Chamberlain Hello to all - this is Dr. Lora Chamberlain, one of the citizens in the video - we are going to court with this evidence - please spread around our Go Fund Me page - it is important that we are able to cover some of the legal fees and expert witnesses that we need for this case, Thanks so much. www.gofundme.com/d3y9sses
