G7: Rich nations back deal to tax multinationals
Pocketing corporate money is illegal. If they do it legally, it’s taxed as income/dividends/capital gain.
I don’t see the problem.

if corporations paid less taxes that means more of the revenue could go into the profits section which would most likely end up in the pockets of greedy board members.
is that a bad assumption?

Yes, a bad assumption. Corporate profits cannot end up in the pockets of greedy board members without being taxed.
