        As much as I like the idea it aint exactly a clean cut rule, a lot of companies operate on slim marjins due to loans or just that being how it is so taxing income could fuck over way more than just the greedy assholes. I do think taxing based off of stock prices should be a thing, the stocks reflect the physical value right? That means they should be able to pay the taxes.

          I mean, when I pay my taxes, it’s based on how much money I earned, not how much money I have left over at the end of the year.

          If the argument is “Corporations are people, my friend” they should be paying an income tax, same as anyone else.
