Why should business owners pay a lower tax rate than people who work for them? That is the question.
Richness has very little to do with income. Wealth is a gauge of richness; income is a gauge of value to an entity. You can make very little and become "rich" if you are frugal enough.
Business owners can move their businesses wherever they wish, and they normally move to where it is most financially beneficial to them. New York made a bunch of concessions to Amazon to get their headquarters because it will be a net positive to the area. Perhaps you think they should have been run off and sent elsewhere because it's just not fair.

I know what they're taxed. I also know their political leanings. They are the ones that want more stuff, until they see the bill. Point is, they can't have both. Any Democrats including any reduction of taxes (from whatever source) invalidates their entire social and economic platform.

That includes a nice lifestyle, reinvesting in the business, and bonuses to valuable employees. All three have and are still happening with the tax cuts.
Unless you've ever actually taken the risk and owned a business you would not understand the above. You obviously favor government regulations and higher taxes. Check out your voting block. See how many jobs they create outside of the government.
This is unsustainable.

Maybe stop creating the conditions that cause Democrats to dig further into socialist principles?

Businesses are not operating today the same as 200 years ago. Mostly for the better, but they can do more.
Telling a company they should pay their employees more and executives less is not socialism. Telling them that investing in their people is investing in their business is not socialism. Telling them to treat all their employees as valuable members of their business is not socialism. All of it is good (better) capitalism.
Using the word "socialism" against everything isn't the hammer you think it is, especially when inapplicable.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
Businesses do do that without the government mandates like the democrat socialist think are necessary. The same people who want government intervention LOVED NAFTA.

Who is this "telling" a company anything? Unless it's the shareholders STFU! No one else has ANY right to tell a company anything.
Now, that said, as a shareholder in various companies, and as a business consultant, I do advise companies to practice "causal marketing." It's good business. But, not because someone with zero stake in that company feels they are entitled to something.

All stakeholders, which is more than just shareholders.

No, again, it's only about the shareholders. But, as I just posted "casual marketing" is good business, and that addresses the stakeholders.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
So! The Commie Repubic of California is trying to flex its political muscle to influence the democrap nomination for POTUS 2020. Saying Iowa and New Hampshire are "too homogenous" (code for: too white) and stating those two puny little states have too long held too much influence on the process, Cal's dems have slated their 2020 primary effectively FIRST. Beginning three weeks BEFORE the Iowa caucus, Cal Dem voters can cast votes in their primary.
This is a GREAT thing for we good Americans! The chances of the dems being saddled with a commie loon are far greater now. Trump can protect his hold on those midwestern states that put him over the top in 2016. Or at least...there's that hope now, when we had none before.
This twist will make the 2020 POTUS campaign a little more interesting.

Maybe a nation of pure agnostics would accomplish that one.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
POTUS Campaign 2020 is off and winging! In this case, extreme left-winging.
Pocahontas drinks a beer and announces she is running for prez. Will visit Iowa this week. The very lib guvnar of Washington, whose name I can't recall, also announced. Both of those campaigns are DOA.
But, as I've mentioned before, I find presidential politics fascinating. Oh, and now that California's primary will be early in the process. In fact, first! as I recall reading. That is a game changer for sure. Not sure why our Indian Princess is heading to Iowa, instead of California.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
I am sure she has confidence in the vote buying power of her friend Nancy “Take your pill” osi.
