You guys realize that any tax levied on a corporation are just passed on to the consumer through higher product prices, don't you? Taxing corporations are one of the few things the founders got wrong. Not only does the consumer pay 100% of a corporatios taxes, they also pay for the corporations costs associated with adhering to the tax code, ie accountants, tax lawyers, etc. Why not cut out the middle man?
it worked as long as those products being sold were produced in america by american workers. then the wages were ample enough to support the taxes and the first tax levies were meant to support those corporations who were producing here with people from here. now everything is produced elsewhere and imported here. those corporations are no supposed to recieve tax levies and should be paying higher taxes which was meant to stop the import goods and have them produced here. unfortunately, free trade has taken root and its all about the rich getting richer and the little guy paying for it. the founding fathers had it right, greed and corruption have tainted it to the point it is working against us now. someone has to pay and neither the greedy corporation or the slimey mooch will pony up because they are protected by a corrupt government who is the middle man. the only way to correct it is to start over!
