Because.....Freedumb!!

Roughly 10 percent of the U.S.'s top corporations pay zero taxes, according to a report by USA Today.    Companies like Verizon and (surprise!) Rupert "Aargh" Murdock's News Corp pay no corporate taxes.  While middle class families are expected to pay their fair share in taxes, these corporate moochers hire tax attorneys and lobbyists to make sure they slide without paying what they legitimately owe.  All the time, they're whining about high corporate tax rates (which they don't pay in any event).

Time to look at the corporate revenue side of the Federal budget equation, and stop bowing to the Rethug / corporate elite view that it's the "little people" that pay taxes, not them.
