There's so much wrong with this argument, I don't know which fallacy to rip apart first.
To begin with, France's corporate tax is a steady 33.33%. Sweden's is 26%. The US is a scaling corporate tax country. You can pay as low as 15%, to the highest at 39%.
If income tax is stupid, tell me how we would fund the services deemed necessary? IE fire, medical, police, etc.
And serious LOLs @ the US being almost entirely socialist. Stop it.
