     I still don't think that taxing corporations makes much sense.  The 
taxes just get passed on to the customers, who are eventually individuals.
Furthermore, dividends end up being taxed TWICE.  Taxes on corporations
should be designed to make their actual production costs reflect social/hidden
costs (economists have a special word for this); general income taxes are not
appropriate.
