Y'all are really taking this shit serious! LMAO. I think my own First Amendment rights should be revoked, actually! LOL

Jokes aside, I'm against censorship. I think information should be available to all but maybe with caveats and accountability.

BTW, I agree with the proposed remedies. But - Who's gonna bell the cat though? It ain't going to be any of y'all's Senators, CongressPeople or the Executive Branch. And we all know for damn sure that it's never going to be the Supreme Court.

Wow! You actually took my shit serious! LOL. Of course, I'm just being overly dramatic and would never support censorship in any way, shape or form. If you can't sense the sarcasm in my comment, I don't know what else to say :)

Overcorrection? No it is not. They enjoy misleading and diverting attention away from the things that really matter. Just take a look at these lawsuits:

Look, these talking heads are simply well-paid entertainers - nothing more. All they spew is lies, propaganda and downplay the things that are really happening. Unfortunately they have a willing audience in the majority of Americans who cannot see through all the bullshit. I personally cannot recall when last I tuned in to any of the mainstream media outlets.

So I'd recommend that they be stripped of all of those protections and get the same punitive treatment that we, the People (we are the ones who pay taxes, BTW), get when we talk shit. Trust me, that'll make them sit up.

Illinois resident and business owner here.

Our company is an LLC (set up on the Secretary of State website for $150) but we elected to be taxed as an S-Corporation by filling out and submitting the FREE Form 2553 obtained from the IRS website. We had this set up 8 years ago and have not had any problems/issues since. I'm sure you can do the same for a C-Corp.

The link to the IRS Tax-Election section is https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employe....

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Good luck.

Definitely... and I'm sure that there are many other cities in Alabama just like Bessemer.

My comment isn't about Amazon specifically as much as the fact that there are so many cities all over this country (supposedly the wealthiest in human history) that have fallen into so much disrepair and so much distress that they need companies like Amazon to come "save" them.

We need to ask why is all I'm saying.

Reasonable point of view. However, have you asked why Bessemer is a dying city and/or a slum? Was it always a slum? Were there no businesses there since it was founded and incorporated?

And if it was such a hell hole, why did Amazon choose to open a warehouse there? Out of the goodness of their hearts? We need to ask questions as to why Amazon had to become a "savior" for the City of Bessemer. Not just focusing on effects but looking into causes too!
