Let’s be honest, if someone said your company can make another 10%, and you know you will be canned if your numbers don’t look good, you think lowering the taxes on your large company suddenly looks better. People are selfish and greedy, they will say well how much can it really hurt the populous, if they even have that much th of a conscience. They have to donate money to get tax breaks, so they donate it to someone who will help them line their pockets. Our tax code entices political bribes/lobbying. So candidates get more money, and companies keep giving it so they can line their pockets, all the while shorting the working class.
Yes, I can understand but I do not empathize. Citizens United deemed corporations as people and gave them the right to donate to political campaigns. They are not people.
I agree with you, that’s why I was saying the tax codes should be changed as well to not incentivise it. Tax the companies (tax brackets would be good as well, so small companies are taxed lower), and no tax cuts for donations. Use the taxes to fund actual support for people, not lining people’s pockets.
