Pretty sure Amazon has been getting taxed correctly for a few years now. Sales tax is collected for every state they do business in. They used to not be, but I believe they are now.
Any Tax loopholes Amazon is doing right now would be of the following nature: They plan to build a new plant and decide to built it in either Oklahoma or Tennessee. Whichever state gives them the best incentive to build there gets them. That would be their low tax payments. A state government agreeing to collect less.
That would be on the government to stop doing shit like that. I hate when I see some new bill being passed after it gets the votes it needs by basically paying states so much money to say yes. That's no different than what Amazon is doing.
