@carnage4life I have seen many of your toots around #Tech #Layoffs, #ZIP and #AI. Have you seen coverage of the delayed implementation of #IRS #Sec174 #R&D #Amortization change to the 2017 #TCJA? That seems easily an as big or bigger factor in the issue.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Besent commits to making Trump-era tax cuts permanent, as House passes budget resolution extending TCJA amid expectations for increased consumption and investment.

Currently set to expire in 2025, "... the CBO is back with a new estimate of what it would cost to keep trump’s tax cut in place over the next decade... more than double the original cost... a whopping $4.6 trillion...

... the bill produced only a small fraction of the promised benefits. Far from generating revenue, as Republicans promised, corporate tax revenue dropped by $100 to $150 billion per year..."

Doing #taxes and once again reminded how vindictive the 2017 #TCJA was to certain states. 😡

In this weeks column I outline the utter failure the #TCJA has been from the perspective of combatting offshoring of profits and suggest a simple alternative.

“As the calendar flips over to 2024, the TCJA’s shortcomings are laid bare—but there’s a potential path forward in the form of a global minimum tax. It won’t get rid of offshoring, but it reimagines tax policy toward a recognition of a global, interlinked system of policies.”
