Not all the blame, no. When did I ever say that? All the relevant blame, sure--we're discussing a particular law and the people who passed it. Again, no one is arguing that the recent tax reform is entirely responsible for the fact that corporations pay low, or sometimes no, tax. Nor is anyone arguing that the recent law is responsible for the disparities in wealth distribution in this country, or something like that. What is being argued is that the recent law only adds fuel to a fire that's been growing--it provides massive tax breaks for corporations and the wealthy, while the middle and lower classes see something between little help and an actual increase in taxes.
I have to ask whether you take the time to read your interlocutors' posts, or if you just imagine you know what they must be saying, and proceed from there? I never said anything about all the blame, tout court. Nor has anyone else, as far as I can tell. I hope, probably in vain, that your next response will at least be to the point, and not some red herring.
Not all the blame... The relevant blame.
What an interesting concept.
Except the blame isn't relevant. As shown given the right amount of deductions big companies has paid zero taxes for quite some time.
