It would be like a VAT. Every company would have to pay it. So it levels the field.

No, not every company. Only companies in the country that taxes automation. Other, smarter, countries would skip that tax and end up with cheaper products. This whole "tax robots" idea would only end with higher prices for products, and it's the people that would have to pay these prices.
