Do you maintain residence in Switzerland? I'm going to guess no. That makes short work of your whole argument.

This is why we should abolish corporate taxation.

But corporations are people. And people have to pay taxes.

The shareholders at 15% you mean? Capital gains and all that.
Who says sound policy can't be fair?

I agree. Abolish corporate taxation, close income tax loopholes.

Because corporations are people it's the government's job to make sure they're not murdered/going bankrupted. This means keeping them on life support if necessary.
Also since corporations are people, the government cannot deny any attempts to incorporate since that would be a forced abortion on the government's part. This is assuming that it begins at the moment of conception.

While that certainly sounds like a potential option, there's still that nagging problem of corporations are people. People who now can even have religious beliefs that must be respected!
So why do some people have to pay taxes in this country and not others?
