Why a company has to survive but not its people?
For example when it comes to the IRS bill, the company will literally cease operations and sell all of its assets to pay IRS.
Why the employees do not deserve this?

Why the employees do not deserve this?
If the company collapses, those people lose their jobs anyway?
> Why the employees do not deserve this?
It's not about what employees "deserve," it's about the simple fact that the law allows the tax authorities to wind up a business to cover the tax bill. See the UK, where HMRC wound up Rangers FC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Administration_and_liquidation...).
So we can put people above companies. With a stroke of a pen.

We can do what you suggest but the result is the same for the people being laid off.
