Sheesh. Take a look at this - Inequality Media is run by Robert Reich, so I’m reasonably true this is spot on.
Effective tax rates before and after the Trump tax law:

Verizon
Before: 21%
After: 8%

Walmart
Before: 31%
After: 17%

AT&T
Before: 13%
After: 3%

Walt Disney
Before: 26%
After: 8%

FedEx
Before: 18%
After: 1%

This is what a corporate giveaway looks like.

Poor dog has food in the crate but doesn’t want to go get it, and she’s HUNGRY. I need her to get used to going in there, but she’s trying her best to get me to cave.
