Graduated Corporate Income Tax:

I’m writing as a constituent to share an article I hope you’ll read: “A Graduated Corporate Tax to Increase Competition.” It explains how a graduated corporate income tax for all public C-corporations would help small and medium sized businesses compete against the corporate giants. The piece proposes a simple fix: lower rates on the first dollars of profit and higher rates only on large profits, so growth isn’t punished early on. This would also help deter anticompetitive mergers. Please read it and consider backing a bill along these lines. Link: https://voters.army/a-graduated-corporate-tax-to-increase-competition/

The Voters.Army website published an article proposing a graduated corporate tax to help smaller businesses compete against the big dogs. (https://voters.army/a-graduated-corporate-tax-to-increase-competition/)

The tax brackets, as proposed, have lower rates for smaller C corporations. The rates go up as annual profits increase. This will discourage mergers, and encourage divestitures, leading to more competitors instead of fewer. The new tax will generate more revenue than the current 21% flat tax, with the largest corporations paying the largest share for a change.

This sounds like common sense in a market where big companies keep getting bigger and more powerful. If you speak about this at your next town hall, I am sure you will get a good reception.

I want to bring a proposal for a graduated corporate income tax to your attention: (https://voters.army/a-graduated-corporate-tax-to-increase-competition/).

This tax would give a break to small C corporations; the highest rates would affect annual profits over $2 billion. It will help small and medium-sized firms compete against the corporate giants that dominate our markets. The highest tax brackets will discourage mergers and encourage conglomerates to divest.

One line that stuck with me: “Strong anti-trust law and vigorous enforcement are the prime weapons against monopolies. A graduated corporate tax also favors competition.” I agree—this isn’t either/or. Please read the article and speak out for both: keep antitrust strong and adopt a graduated corporate tax that nudges markets toward more competitors.
