$100m gift to the National Park Service is "transformative"

A quick google says that Lilly had a net income of 2.9 BILLION dollars, for just one quarter of this year.

A 100 million gift is a lovely thing.

Rough brain math says that’s 3.7% of the quarterly income, or 0.85 percent of their yearly.

it is, however, more than they paid their CEO.

So even a 1% tax would yield more than this, from ONE company only, in One year only.

Imagine if we had a National Parks National Tax rate of 1/4 % on large companies.
