Tax-breaks doesn't mean giving money to businesses, they mean taking less money from businesses.
- Jochim 4y agoCorporate entities are a societal construct. Their very existence is defined by what society chooses to give them.
- theturtletalks 4y agoTax-cuts for businesses and not individuals is effectively the government “giving” money to businesses no?
- DeathArrow 4y agoNot really. And governments have tax-cuts for individuals, too. And that doesn't mean the governments are giving money to individuals.
- theturtletalks 4y agoYes, but I'm talking about corporate tax-cuts in leiu of individual tax-cuts.
