Why would you discourage investment with higher taxes? there is a reason that capital gains is treated differently and double taxing dividends also has negative effects.

Why would you discourage labor with higher taxes than investments? That argument cuts both ways

Without capital companies go bust unless you think that Stalinist central planning is a good system

Stalinist central planning is actually Leninist, and it still has capital, just not private property in it (and, consequently, a different way of allocating it.)

Without capital, a productive effort fails under Stalinism, too.
