"It's OK to throw away money because a big business can afford it" is not a very compelling argument. If an increase in property tax is more than enough to cover it, what reason would you have to collect the business tax other than to spite the companies that are affected by it?

It's nothing to do with spite nor is it throwing money away. It's about redirecting money from some of the richest companies in the world to help people who have nothing.

Why would you put the taxes on the people instead of the businesses over $20 mil in revenue making record profits? It makes no sense. We have enough regressive taxes.
