From: Mike Hunter on 11 Jul 2007 11:17 On the IRS site you will find listed the amount of federal corporate taxes that a particular corperation paid. You will find that Ford and Toyota are not listed as having paid US corporate income taxes in 2006. Surely you too can show us where Toyota, or any Japanese corporation DID pay US Corporate taxes as you "claim". Just tell us what the sites are. Come on, act like a fellow human being, and share the information you found. I'm waiting. You don't have to act like a spoiled brat (ok spoiled brat is the nicest thing I could think of to describe what you are behaving as - the other ones all involve language that is inappropriate for this forum). ;) mike "Jeff" <kidsdoc2000(a)hotmail.com> wrote in message news:M%Tki.9221$ZO4.2275(a)trndny05... > Mike Hunter wrote: >> Well then show us where Toyota, or any Japanese corporation DID pay US >> Corporate taxes as you "claim".

That's not the case. All Detroit has to do is build a decent small car with good fuel economy. This is something that they should have started doing 30 years ago, without pressure from Congress. How many oil price shocks have we had? What's the long-term trend? Rather than build a decent small car with good fuel economy, Detroit essentially gave up the entry end of the market to the Japanese. Detroit shot themselves in the collective foot in two ways; first, they lost all small car market- and mind-share. Second, people who started out in economical small cars from Japan and found them to be reliable and, worse, reasonably nice and started moving up into bigger, nicer Japanese cars instead of switching to back to Detroit iron. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com

No one but you has claimed to be able to access IRS returns for individual corproations. We can't find an IRS site that provides this sort of information, so no such sight can be posted. You are the one claiming that there is an IRS site that provides corprate tax information for individual corporations. I believe this site does not exist. The Toyota annual report (available at http://www.toyota.co.jp/en/ir/library/annual/index.html ) listes the total amount of taxes paid by Toyota Motor Corporation, but unfortunately this is not broken out by country. > I do not do homework for my own grand children what makes you think I will > go and search the IRS site to find a URL for you?

LOL This is not the same as doing homework for your grand children. This is a simple request for you to back up a claim you have made that I believe to be untrue. You can easily prove that it is true by simply cutting and pasting a URL. Isn't establishing your credibility woth the time this takes? Ed

What do you mean establish credibility? I never claimed to be able to access IRS returns for individual corporations. The fact is he IRS site list the amount of taxes paid by every publicly held corporation, IF they paid taxes, it is public record. If they did not pay taxes they will not be listed among those that did pay taxes. I don't record URLs from every place I visit anymore than do others. Certainly not from the IRS site, the last time I did a search. What makes you think I should search the site to get information for others? I could not care less what others choose to believe. How many times do one need to be told where to look? If one can't search a site to find information, as I do, that says something about that persons abilities, I supose. One can also find the percentages for all federal income taxes paid by different income groups at the IRS site, as well. The last time I looked I discovered nearly half of all Americans with an income, pay NO federal taxes. Around 35%, of the lowest income group that do have income taxes withheld, get a refund greater than the amount withheld. The top 5% of earners in the US pay half of all the federal personal income taxes paid to the US treasury. The current income to the US treasury was GREATER in the last quarter than the amount the treasury has been spending. That has been true for the past three quarters, as well. That is why the federal budget deficit is coming down much faster than expected. No I don't have a URL for that either. ;) mike "Ed White" <ce.white3(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:1184180728.145673.298690(a)22g2000hsm.googlegroups.com... > On Jul 10, 6:30 pm, "Mike Hunter" <mikehu...(a)mailcity.com> wrote: >> Well then show us where Toyota, or any Japanese corporation DID pay US >> Corporate taxes as you "claim".
