This is just government-enabled theft. Politicians promise people "free" stuff that is extracted by threat of violence from someone else.

Companies provide services that their customers choose to pay for. Profitable companies provide services efficiently so that everyone involved (customers, owners, employees) are better off. Their existence is a social good because profitable companies make everyone better off without coercion. They embody peaceful cooperation and civilization. They are not "supposed to pay taxes", except in the mind of politicians who seek to increase their own power and wealth by appealing to the envy and covetousness of their voters.

If you want something, make it yourself or get it from others through peaceful cooperation. Do not take it by force from someone else, either personally or through a proxy (government).

Edit: I realize that a world without coercion and violence is an ideal that will not be realized, but I think we should be trying to bring it about anyway. This means promoting peaceful exchange (free markets, private companies) and discouraging coercion and theft (government).
