If corporations paid the way they should the country would be in a lot less money issues than it is.

Here in the UK it's often talked about and people get angry about Bob the builder doing cash only work and not paying his taxes. Just another plan from the government and media to cause in fighting rather than look at the real issue, big corps.

But also fuck scalpers so I'm torn.

Speculative profits should be heavily taxed, it doesn't matter if it's done by old money that runs the big corporation or by middle class people that are as morally bankrupt. Scalpers and oligarchs are just two strains of the same virus.

less money issues than it is.

Hard disagree. They'd just spend significantly more.
