>Where do B&S say to eliminate corporate taxation?
Answer: They don't. Go read the article (first in a series to span the
next few issues) at

That they don't say any such thing is hardly surprising, since in their much-derided (and apparently unread) book on taxes they advocate exactly the opposite--increasing taxes on corporations to a 25 percent share of the total income tax collections from individuals and businesses.
I must say that I find it funny that Mr. Baird waves B&S around as an example of "ideological blinders" about taxation when his own flawlessly bogus account of what they wrote betrays a myopic Marxist lens that sees "corporate media hypocrisy" everywhere, no matter what the actual facts. I like to imagine the general LBO hilarity at B&S's expense if they had committed such a howler in print. But I have come to realize that factual scrupulosity is a one-way street in these quarters.
