Tax Day? Not for Everyone

Happy Tax Day.

As you consider how much of your hard-earned money you paid out in taxes this year, you might want to to consider some of the big businesses that did not pay any taxes for at least one year between 2008 and 2015.  Among them:   

Five years:  Boeing.

Four years:  Con Ed.

Three years:  International Paper, General Electric, Verizon.

Two years:  CBS, Exxon, FedEx, TimeWarner.

One year:  Wells Fargo, Yum Brands, Dupont, J.P. Morgan Chase, Scana, IBM, AT&T, Duke Energy.

...and more than 80 others.  Eighty!

As I say happy tax day.
