This is a terrible solution because it eliminates tax competition between states. The corporate tax rate should be zero-- that is the best solution, as it would free up all of this ridiculous accounting and financial compliance machinery for actual productive uses. Corporate profits are already taxed at the individual owner-level as a capital gain or dividend. The corporate income tax is grand-standing political tax with no basis in science or economics.


I agree. Taxing personal income is better, taxing land is even better.

Simplify the tax code and there will be no loop holes.
