Corporations don't have the incentive to the extent that individuals do. Why should corporate management take risks with tax liability? What consequence does that have on each of them personally? Certainly not what cooking their own personal 1040s do. It is rare that any management attempts shenanigans

First, I maintain that the bulk of corporate activity is not public held entities, but private. Where management and ownership interests are one and the same. Defined as number of corporations, total corporate revenue, and corporate income taxes paid.

Second, I think you err in the assertion that structuring activity to minimize tax is illegal, immoral etc. You consistently assert that there is no difference between avoiding and evading tax liability.

>>Tax policy is structured to create incentives by policy makers.

If you believe this, then why would you assert that corporations receive better treatment?


Because corporate entities exert a greater influence on the legislature process. And the bulk of these corporate entities are in fact proxies for private individuals and groups.
