HOW TAX AVOIDANCE ENABLES FASCISM
Wealth Growth - Total Income Reported - Total Taxes Paid -True Tax Rate
Warren Buffett Berkshire Hathaway Inc.
$24.3B - $125M - $23.7M - 0.10%
Jeff Bezos Amazon.com Inc.
$99.0B - $4.22B - $973M - 0.98%
Michael Bloomberg Bloomberg LP
$22.5B - $10.08 - $292M - 1.30%
Elon Musk Tesla Inc.
$13.9B - $1.528 - $455M - 3.27%
When billionaires don't pay what they owe, we suffer from cuts to public services (schools, infrastructure, healthcare)
Billionaires funnel their money into Super PACS to support candidates that promise more deregulation
Wealthy elites bankroll fascism in exchange for total control of the economy

BAD ACTOR SUPPORTING FASCISM: ELON MUSK
In 2024 and 2022, Tesla paid 0% federal income tax rate, despite billions in income.
In 2021, Musk paid a true tax rate of only 3.27% while his wealth skyrocketed by $121 billion.
Musk donated over $250 million to a pro-Trump Super PAC and was appointed to lead DOGE for it.
Musk has moved to bypass Congress and gut federal agencies consolidating power under the executive branch.

BAD ACTOR SUPPORTING FASCISM: JEFF BEZOS
Bezos paid $0 in federal income taxes in 2007 and 2011.
Between 2014 and 2018, his true tax rate was 0.98%, even as his wealth grew by $99 billion.
Bezos's business model relies on crushing small competition & labor unions so workers have no leverage.
Bezos's companies benefit from the massive corporate tax cuts passed during the Trump administration (from 35% to 21%).
