First, the anti-market undertones contained in the concept of distributing profits in the form of dividends to every citizen are deeply concerning. [...] A structure in which corporate "windfall profits" are shared with the public, while companies alone bear the losses, is inconsistent with both fairness and basic economic principles. [...] If there is excess tax revenue, it should primarily be used to pay down the national debt in line with the principles of fiscal management. Redistributing excess tax revenue to the people under the label of a "dividend" invites suspicions of a populist attempt at winning favor with cash payments. [...] Not only is the AI-driven semiconductor boom unlikely to continue forever, but major competitors such as the United States and China are aggressively closing the gap.
