Corporate Tax Revenue Came In 31% Below Predictions, And It's Getting Worse

Federal tax payments by big businesses are falling much faster than anticipated in the wake of Republicans’ tax cuts, providing ammunition to Democrats who are calling for corporate tax increases.
The U.S. Treasury saw a 31 percent drop in corporate tax revenues last year, almost twice the decline official budget forecasters had predicted. Receipts were projected to rebound sharply this year, but so far they’ve only continued to fall, down by almost 9 percent or $11 billion.

Though business profits remain healthy and the economy is strong, total corporate taxes are at the lowest levels seen in more than 50 years.

Big businesses paying even less than expected under GOP tax law


But the frightening thing is that, despite all the sugar Trump and the Republicans have poured into the system, dark clouds continue to gather on the horizon. The economy looks set to slide into a recession with interest rates near record lows and corporations already basking in gifts even bigger than predicted. Any “stimulus” that happens to pull the U.S. out of this one, isn’t going to come through tax breaks for corporations. That well is already dry.

/——-/ Well dang, that is great news. The lower corporate taxes, the more competitive they are in the world market, more sales, more revenue, more hiring, more capital equipment and lower consumer prices. Incredible.

Uhm, except revenue keeps falling. That is the point that is being made. It's ok we are here to help ewe for the rest of the week.
Revenue isn't falling. What was lost from taxes on big businesses was made up for by increased revenues from individuals. The OP is deliberately misleading.


Exactly, corporations got the lions share of the tax cuts, therefore tax revenues from CORPORATIONS fell!!!!
MAGA!

This is pretty simple stuff, Aldo! If you got a hundred dollars in revenue from A (which are corporations) and fifty dollars in revenue from B (which are individual taxpayers) with the previous tax structure...then because of a tax structure, A gave you eighty dollars in revenue and B gave you eighty dollars in revenue...which tax structure brought in more revenue?


Oh I get it. Thank God the corporations are paying less and we are paying more.

MAGA!!!

/—-/ Corporations pass tax increases on to the consumer in the form of higher prices and I don’t want to pay more for stuff so you feel better about yourself.
 
/——/ Ever hear of libs screeching Gubmint Shutdown ?

Have you ever heard of the buck stops here?

You worshipers are so transparent, Obama was responsible for all 10 trillion dollars and Trump holds the blame for not one red cent.

/——/ What part of libs screaming that the Gubmint Shutdown is killing people? You know damn well all the presidents can do is veto a budget. They have no say in what goes on it. And you applaud when the media attacks the president. So stop playing stupid.
And he still bears responsibility when he fails to do so and signs it.

Stop releasing powerful politicians of their actions because other politicians said mean or false shit. That is politics and every single president plays the same game. If they believe in what they are doing then taking a little heat to solve some of the most difficult problems this nation currently faces is a very small price.

Unfortunately, there has not been a president with principals and balls in forever.
/——/ Look how long the Trump shutdown lasted and democRATs refused to budge. Trump saw people getting hurst so he signed. Now give it up Bozo.

Are you an intern at the Ministry of Truth?
/——/ So tell us how Libs and the MSM reacted to the Trump Shutdown. Go ahead tinker bell

It really doesn't get more MAGA than that!

Well, they could start by not submitting the largest budget request in history. Hard to say that the POTUS is against spending when he asked for more than anyone ever before him.

But he is still spending more money than ever before. Cutting one area and adding to another area does not count as spending.

Also, the DOD budget was not gutted as much as you like to pretend. The DOD budget under Obama was 190% more than under Bush II
