First off, there's a fiscal hole that has to come from somewhere. If it doesn't come from AI oligarchs, it's going to come from the rich at large, or the working class. Real talk, if it comes from the working class, we're 100% going to have a revolution, life is getting unsustainable for a large swathe of normal Americans already. If working class folks feel they're getting bent over for oligarchs now, they'll steal and destroy to make the cost up.

Second, these companies have looted America by hiding income in Panama/Ireland/etc when they've earned it on the back of American protection, American consumers, etc. It would be generous of the US government to offer corporate wealth repatriation and a token payment as part of deprivatization.
