No, but the companies using it should.

But corporations are people, and people pay taxes. So yes, you will be doing that here.

I’m honestly fine with companies not paying taxes so long as their profits are being spent on people in lower tax brackets.

Current tax structure makes it easy for the company to just give all their profits to their executives.

70% tax on income over $1 million. Go back to a progressive tax structure for company profits. Not sure why my local donut shop is paying the same rate as Microsoft.
