"double-tax" is a nonsense concept. There are dozens of overlapping taxes in the world.

It's not nonsense. You have to determine what level of taxation is appropriate on investment, if you ignore secondary taxes you are ignoring the real cost to investors.

If you think 50% is a reasonable tax on investment, then fine. But don't pretend it doesn't exist.
