The goal of this proposal is wealth redistribution. Why not just do it directly? By any sane analysis we are far to the left of the peak of the Laffer curve so there is plenty of room to act. There is no reason that the benefits of cut throat capitalism and a strong welfare state can't coexist in the same economy. This command economy government offloading the welfare state onto corporations nonsense is not the way to accomplish it.
