>>42083971no, what your graph is demonstrating is that when you raise corporate tax rates, corporations briefly pay more, and over time find ways to pay less. absent massively simplifying the tax code (which is not politically possible) you can't avoid this reality
also a financial crisis isn't a viable reset button as long as the first world is more or less at peace. bread and circuses work really, really well. this loop can't be broken unless people are suffering much more than they currently are
