Corporate Tax Evasion is Treason
Because our tax dollars are integral in the defense of this country from foreign entities that would destroy our nation, Corporations who do the major portion of their business in the United States and are incorporated here, should be charged with corporate treason if they are found guilty of evading taxes in excess over $1 million by any illegal means including fraudulent transactions, hiding assets, money laundering, or by moving the corporation to another country to avoid paying taxes. Corporate assets triple the amount improperly managed would be forfeit and top ranking executives imprisoned for a period of time. Penalties for repeat offenders should be doubled each time this occurs.
Why is this important?
Corporations in the U.S. enjoy many a huge number of benefits and protections by being here from the safety provided by our military to quality roads that allow them to easily transport their products to a consumer system to purchase those products to an educated labor force. It is not fair for them to avoid paying for some share of the costs of all these (and many more) benefits. We have all been affected by this skyrocketing trend as the middle class share of the tax burden continues to grow and the middle class to shrink. This is a crime against our nation.
