an official report that outlines some of the worst corporate offenders:
General Electric would have paid $14.8 billion more in federal income taxes than it did between 2008 and 2013 if it had paid the full 35 percent federal income tax rate — to say nothing of the $16 billion bailout it received during the financial crisis.Right now, wealthy corporations have enormous power to influence campaigns and elections.
This gives them an outsized voice in lawmaking and policy — and stifles the voice of ordinary Americans.
While the Business Roundtable and politicians complain that corporate tax rates are too high, large businesses rarely pay the 35 percent rate.
In fact, many large corporations such as Amazon, General Motors, and Prudential pay no taxes at all.
Many conglomerates and ultra-wealthy individuals stash their profits overseas to evade taxes.
Among their tax evasion methods is establishing subsidiaries which are incorporated in foreign countries with laxer corporate tax policies.
We know this is true from the Offshore Leaks, the Panama Papers, the Paradise Papers, and the Swiss Leaks.

There have been a lot of mergers and buyouts of media and entertainment companies since the 1980s.
Mainstream media has since become more concentrated in terms of ownership and the influences of advertisers
and owning companies both have an enormous in how mainstream media shapes itself and society.

The Conglomerate Paradox: As GE splinters, Facebook becomes MetaNovember 23, 20216:30 AM ET Greg Rosalsky
{ excerpts }:
"Where is Gary?" asks Lemon. Just then a man in a suit kicks down a wall and barges into the room.
"Gary's dead," the man says.
"I'm Jack Donaghy, new VP of development for NBC-GE-Universal-Kmart."
With a conglomerate, 2 + 2 = 3.
In the 1980s, investors wised up to all this
— and there was a bloodbath for conglomerates in the United States.
Jerry Davis, a professor at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business, published a study about their dramatic decline.
Davis, somewhat ironically, pointed to GE's centuries-long reign as a successful conglomerate.
The child of Thomas Edison, GE came out of the gate as a conglomerate, operating in a diverse set of industries like power generation, lightbulbs, radios, and so on.
GE, he says, was originally "in the business of all the stuff you can do with electricity,"
and it really did possess the ideas, talent, and know-how that allowed it to succeed in a wide array of industries for a long time.
"Google is the General Electric of the 21st century," Davis says.
"GE was the stuff you can do with electricity. Google is stuff you can do with the internet."
