"The most economically efficient tax system is one where workers are taxed the least, and the profiting companies the most."
Hmm. I don't think this is true. According to the article below, you can see that economists on the right and left favor a complete elimination of the corporate income tax. In fact, the article points out that it's one of the few areas of overlapping agreement!

It's no wonder that in progress Europe, corporate taxes are low and income+consumption taxes on the middle class are very high.
