Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) also responded sharply to Bezos on Twitter.\nMany of the nation's wealthiest executives, including Bezos, use legal tax-avoidance methods that allow them to pay low or no income taxes in some years, according to aninvestigation released by ProPublicalast month.\nSen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., speaks during the hearing of Federal Reserve Board Chair Jerome Powell, before Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs hearing to examine the Semiannual Monetary Policy Report to Congress, on Capitol Hill in Washington Thursday, July 15, 2021. (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana)More\nThe investigation calculated a \"true tax rate\" based on the amount in taxes paid by a billionaire and the amount his or her wealth grew over a given period. By that measure, from 2014 to 2018, Bezos paid a 0.98% tax rate, theinvestigation found.\nBy comparison, in recent years, the median American household brought in $70,000 per year and paid 14% in federal taxes, the report says.\nAlongside the low taxes paid by Bezos, tech giant Amazon effectively paid no federal income taxes for 2017 and 2018, according toan analysisconducted by the left-leaning Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy in 2019.\nThe company saw an uptick in recent years, paying $162 million in taxes in 2019 andreporting in February a tax expense of $1.8 billion, an approximation of its 2020 tax bill, according todocuments filedwith the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nThe criticism from Warren comes as some Democrats in Washington D.C. seek to raise taxes on corporations and wealthy individuals.\nPresident Joe Biden hascalled on corporate Americato pay its \"fair share,\" referring to his proposed tax hike that would raise the rate for corporations from 21% to 28%. Prior to a tax overhaul passed during the Trump administration, the corporate tax rate was 35%.\nIn addition, Biden hasproposed tax hikes on the wealthythat would increase the top individual income tax rate to 39.6% from 37%, tax capital gains as normal income for households making more than $1 million, and close the carried interest loophole.\nIn March, Bidensingled out Amazonas a corporation that should pay a higher tax bill. A month later, Bezos said hesupports a higher tax ratefor corporations in order to pay for Biden's infrastructure plan.\nAmazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Warren's tweet.\nIn 2019, in response to criticism from then-presidential candidate Biden over its purported failure to pay taxes,Amazon tweeted, “We pay every penny we owe. Congress designed tax laws to encourage companies to reinvest in the American economy. We have. .$200B in investments since 2011 & 300K US jobs. Assume VP Biden’s complaint is w/ the tax code, not Amazon.”","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":178760840,"gmtCreate":1626838025280,"gmtModify":1633770511080,"author":{"id":"4089499026613770","authorId":"4089499026613770","name":"JeremyChuax","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a1f1ede120de2da723e4456d7fdcce55","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4089499026613770","authorIdStr":"4089499026613770"},"htmlText":"What
