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.
Here's the problem with you logic. Say Exxon pays 39% on that $45 bilion so aorund $18 billion. Sounds good right? They are paying thier share right? Well except to get that $18 billion back they raises gas prices 25 cents a gallon or cut employee benefits or pay or hours. All of which has negative effect on the economy. Now if you could somehow force them to pay the taxes without doing that then I'd be all for it but you can't.
