The money generated by business activity is taxed in various ways. No need to pile on. Besides, if a business does not incorporate, it is not taxed. It is solely a function of the legal fiction that a corporation is a "person"..........

The best way to address that issue is to rely more on user fees for government services and less on general revenue subsidies. Course, along with that we should remove all statutory barriers to private companies providing parallel services for consumers to choose from. For example, the first class mail monopoly should be abolished today. Fed Ex, UPS and the gang could provide better cheaper service and we would spend less subsidizing the inefficient USPS. TIME TRAVEL AHEAD 10 YEARS: Another example is the scandal prone, inefficient federal airport security bureaucracy. We have no better airport security today than we did 10 years ago and every year it costs us 20% more. We should privatize the whole mess.
