But if I ran a company I would do everything within my power to reduce the hell out of the company tax bill...

Well, a way to get more people to pay tax is to remove the obstacles to starting a business, including perhaps reducing the tax rate and the complexity. Speaking as a small business (co-)owner myself, the administrative overhead often makes me wonder whether it's worth bothering.

More businesses, more people making money - more people that can pay tax!
