"Hey, lower paid employees you're fied, but now you now work for FooBar Services, and we've hired FooBar to do the work you're currently doing."

Thus lowering their ration and tax obligations.

These jealousy based taxes are insane and have to stop.

Pretty much. This will exacerbate the practice of hiring high paid white collar workers directly while contracting out to staffing firms for low paid positions.

This is so funny but it is very true. I work as a tax auditor and I see more and more companies doing his. They restructure the entire business to optimize for certain benefits. For example, all of the real estate will be structured in separate entities to protect from liability. Same thing can be done for taxes. Gets even worse when it is a foreign parent that controls all the subs. You can't audit the foreign parent and the domestic subs have minimal tax exposure.
