Make the tax scale into an exponential multiplier. Two companies? Double taxed. Three companies? Your taxes are now cubed. So on and so forth.

Maybe subsidiaries of larger conglomerates should be taxed this way as well, take giants like Nestle and Unilever down a few pegs.

There was that TV movie called “The Plan”, which was basically about the show from the cylons’ perspective, and trying to work their actions into a somewhat coherent narrative. But the titular “plan” was essentially just winging it.

The line from the show’s intro though, “and they have a plan”, that was not something the showrunners originally wanted. The network made them add it in.

I see them annoyingly frequently in my part of Texas, although I guess my experience is skewed, because I live near their factory in Austin and I also travel for work.

The number of cars they’ve left rotting in the factory’s back yard grows day by day, though. Which warms my heart.
