Wouldn't this create an incentive for increased management bonuses in order to "tax-optimize" the profits?

- pkulak 3y agoI’m okay shifting it to income tax. As long as it’s collected.
- mminer237 3y agoAny income paid out is already taxed as income though.
- dboreham 3y agoAll corporations have this incentive. It's how the tax system is designed to operate.
- admax88qqq 3y agoThis is silly and false. Corporations that inflate management expenses will generate less profit for shareholders. I don't think any shareholders would like that idea.
- nobodyandproud 3y agoWhat’s silly is expecting anyone to believe your assertion. Trimming workforce costs and padding the executive and administrative pay is an old and successful playbook. It’s also a short-term playbook and has become a national security issue. I’d love to see retro-active clawbacks for the CEOs and their teams that have dumped the problem on the current generation.
