If the company is still here, and wouldn't have been otherwise, I guess it worked for that company.

The housing bubble was started from the mandated lending to otherwise unqualified buyers, directed by the government through the Community Reinvestment Act.

They must forward the taxes - now as far as them paying none, you're correct in that most companies will not take a hit on profit to pay a levied tax, so that means the price of the product would have to go up. If that company thinks that the new price to pay the new tax would be noncompetitive with, say, a company outside the country not having to pay the tax, they're going to move.

No they don't. They have a duty to their shareholders and the customers buying their products.
