We can't "play" their game, because as law-abiding, tax-paying citizens, we can't "pay" to get in.

Until we can get said BIG LOBBYISTS and their BIG MONEY out of our politics, our corporations will still continue to enjoy their protected non-taxed status.
In most all of those cases, the tax savings realized by the corporation is passed on to the consumer.

While we're at it, instead of spouting a bunch of generalized tripe, which particular tax policies would you do away with?
