You make money for someone else in exchange for the safety of a consistent paycheck. Its like the old feudal system, in theory you are being protected in exchange for your labour.

Of course in practise you are at the mercy of the company, and in the feudal system the protection you were afforded meant you needed to pay for your own armour and fight to the death to protect your owner.

Rather than worrying about trying to tax 1 person heaps (they will dodge it anyway)

Why not put in place improved worker protection and pay laws.

Higher minimum wage - say equal to the bottom quartile median house price in the area, mandatory health care even for the lowest paid employees, absolutely no overtime.

They can dodge this by moving manufacturing overseas… But they already did this.
