The corporate tax is actually a small (but not negligible) portion of tax revenue. Part of the logic for capital gains tax being lower than income tax is to account for the double taxation of the corporate tax. So I would be in favor of raising the capital gains tax to make up for eliminating the corporate tax.
I also happen to think that taxes should be lower overall, but I think it’s best to divide the two issues: 1) how much we should be taxed, from 2) how we should be taxed.
