Respectful comment here: I genuinely do not understand why "raise taxes on corporations" is so often proposed as a panacea. Yes, they should pay more in taxes. NO, raising the corporate tax rate won't make them do it.

As American companies have demonstrated in spades over the past decades- and if you're from rural America, you already know this, because this is is WHY people in the rural midwest have to drive 60 miles to find work- they will simply leave the U.S. for countries with lower taxes, fewer environmental regulations, and lower labor standards. How is this 1.) moral 2.) not exploitation and 3.) going to raise tax revenue in the U.S.?
