Agree

Raise

Johnson was a proponent of the 'Great Society' which involved significant government spending on social programs. This would require revenue, potentially from increased taxes. However, he also understood the importance of businesses for economic growth, so he might not fully support a simple increase in corporate taxes.

Maintain the current rate

Disagree

Remove taxes on corporations and tax shareholder dividends instead

This approach might not align with Johnson's policies, as it could reduce the overall tax revenue from corporations. Johnson's 'Great Society' programs required significant funding.
