Note that you didn't provide any evidence for the initial assertion. I supposed evidence is supposed to be a one way street, where I have to post it but you don't?

The evidence is all the corporations that do pay corporate income tax. Do you think that Exxon-Mobil wants to pay billions in income tax (and tens of billions when all forms of taxes are considered)?

Do you think the other large American oil companies want to pay billions

And its not just the oil companies, many companies pay corporate income taxes. Why do so if its voluntary? The answer is that it is not voluntary.
