Could be tax on profit or % of revenue, if there is no profit.

  That clearly doesn't work since that ends up being negative for capital heavy businesses (airlines, manufacturing companies, car dealerships). Some businesses generate massive amounts of revenue, but have very low margins + not much profit. There's a reason why things are the way they are. Redrawing the playing field is complicated and can't be done easily without (business) casualties. The wealthy pay a decent amount for the resources of society they generally consume, which is fine.
