The problem with a new business tax is that it doesn't come for free.

Increasing businesses taxes reduces international competitiveness which can reduce taxation collected in other areas. Also politically it's an incredibly hard thing to implement.

And remember you have to do this at the same time as you're implementing Medicare for All. Making it a pretty radical transition by any measure.
