@franti Because corporations will compete for the honor of stepping on you, with the best boot available

How does having a low corporate tax rate equal living under the boot of a corporation? @franti

That is a dumb argument

@Deleted User It creates a race to the bottom

I will pay the same

Bottom of what?

the barrel

We need regulation no regulation on corporations is a dumb idea

What does a race to the bottom even mean?

profit for all service to none

And that does not equal living under the boot of a corporation

Privetise profit socialise losses

I am arguing for a low corporate tax rate nothing else right now

you really think if there was no regulation at all. companies wouldnt fuck up the earth. and low tax for corporations might be a good idea but you gotta do the same for small businesses

@Deleted User Low or abolishing it?

And what % would be low in your eyes

@Deleted User You think companies *want* to look like bad guys?

you think companies care???

they would start their own military if they had the chance

If you're fucking up the environment, then by proxy you're fucking up someone elses property, yes? @Deleted User
