Jamie Dimon says American companies need tax cuts to be competitive.

They don't. If they did, they wouldn't have so much cash to blow on executive compensation and financial engineering.

Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase — the biggest bank in America — needs to stop gaslighting the entire country.

For quarter after quarter — just as he did on Tuesday — he has joined with other CEOs of the Business Roundtable (which is exactly what it sounds like) and insisted that the US tax system is the single biggest disadvantage they face in the global market.

1. Wait, Jamie is right on this one.

I work at Walmart and I make $9 an hour and have to rely on medicaid to not die, but I read somewhere that Jamie and his friends need tax breaks.

So that is that.

2. It's already a dystopian nightmare, what the fuck do they want now?

No taxes at all for them and what's left of the middle class to take up all the rest? Jesus they just passed a 700 billion defense bill which is a gigantic monster corporate give away. They are crushing this goddamn country.
