Sure it does. Expand or die is pretty much what it says. Your objections are noted, and ignored.

Businesses have been hoarding any profits and sitting on them until they see what happens in the economy. Giving massive tax breaks for adding new jobs will allow those companies to expand. If they don't, their competitors could put them out of business.
It's harsh, but it's exactly the sort of crap that corporate types would pull if they had the opportunity. Anyone with objections can whine and wither or fight to expand.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

I'd be fine with corporations not paying taxes if they didn't have so many rights.

Punishing past success seems a strange idea though

Let's not be naive. The President has the power to introduce and direct legislation.

That wouldn't actually raise that much money, even if they currently paid no taxes.

It's why the personal income tax is the primary source of government revenue.
