Ok, so let's talk about this for a second.
First, I apologize for not being more clear in the original question. I did try to clarify in following tweets. I was asking about United States Federal Income Taxes. And it was a bit of a trick question.

Before getting into it, I just want to make it clear that I'm not demonizing Amazon for how many taxes they pay. They do pay all the taxes they're legally required to pay. The problem does not lie in Amazon (or all the other big companies this applies to), but in the US tax code.
Oh, and yes, I acknowledge that these companies are doing stuff with the money they're not giving to the government, but the fact remains that Amazon (and similar companies) are closing other tax-paying businesses which results in overall less tax revenue for the US.
