Companies don't pay taxes. The taxes collected from corporations come from customers (in the form of higher prices) and employees (lower wages/benefits). The vast majority of companies are not transnational giants capable of moving assets from one jurisdiction to another to minimize tax liabilities.

In a desire to rein in the perceived abuses of a handful of companies, the politicos inevitably miss their mark and smack instead the owners of plumbing supply stores, paving companies, pastry caterers, bicycle tire manufacturers.

Do you make a distinction between these "good" corporations and the "bad" corporations?
