"The Citizenship Tax
The Citizenship Tax is levied on the absolute gross receipts of an entity, from all sources and for all amounts received in its name by entities it controls. (i.e., franchises). The tax is progressive. Assuming a base rate of 2%, 2% is added to the rate each time the receipts increase by one decimal position, thus:"

That is aimed purely at "biggies". If your "small and bad" you don't get hit much. If your "big and good" you get hit hard.
