That's a strange way to look at it since the corporations have a much better ratio of wins to losses and have to manage profitability.
Regardless, the issue is government spending, not collection. I don't see how aggregating even more money into a few politicians is somehow going to solve anything, or what difference a few billion will make when the country spends trillions.
It's simple. Fund healthcare, education, earned income tax credits, student loan forgiveness, early childhood education, green energy, carbon sequestration. Fund the IRS so the tax code is enforced for the wealthy as vigorously as it is enforced for the poor. It's not hard to find huge societal wins that can be had with increased spending.
If the answer is as simple as spend more then we wouldn't have any problems since we already spend more (than we have) every year. Pour more billions into a black hole does nothing.
Programs are broken because of how money is spent, not because of how much.

So... you think that Warren is trying to add funding like a wealth tax, but... has no idea what to spend the money on?
That's a non-sequitur. I said the government is bad at allocating and using funds. Do you disagree with that statement? How does poorly spending trillions get fixed by spending a few more billion?
That's the problem. Solve that first, then move on to taxes.

Citation very much needed. When you look at all of the things that our government successfully runs, and all of the thing that corporations successfully run, I'll stick with governments every time.
The govt spends more money than it has, and forcefully collects money. Corporations need to make money to stay alive, and must voluntarily get paid.
What does "successfully run" mean? A few major projects have turned out well. But many are failing. Otherwise why the constant need for money cash? What is a few billion going to change that a few trillion didn't?

Uh... dude, I got some news for you, about the country you live in.
