#22My notes.... Numbers: - Alphabet 1Q EPS $13.33, Est. $9.300 - free cash flow for the first quarter of $4.34 billion. - 1Q Google Other Rev. $4.35B - 1Q Rev.

If you think lobbyist-driven tax policy in America is ONLY done by Republicans, you should probably expand your reading beyond CNN / WashPo. You're right that the federal government that creates the tax policy is for sale, but it's not just the Republicans.

Maybe check Amazon's tax rate before "this Republican tax policy" went into effect prior to blaming low corporate tax rates on one party.
