A far better way to get more corporations interested in paying dividends would have been to instead allow the corporations to simply deduct the amount of dividends as an expense.

The current proposal does nothing to entice corporations to pay dividends, other than a hope that more investors will purchase their company's stock. They still face the same tax issue.
