I read once that, at least for incorporation, the fee was used to protect
the business name in the Commonwealth, as it covers the expenses to check
names, stop others from using it, and so forth.

A simple way to boost micro-business for the state of MA - cut the LLC fee
to say $100 for corporations with earnings less than $25,000.   Or apply the
fee as $100 plus 1% of earnings capped at the current fee of $500, with the
fee reduction claimed through your state income tax form.

The fee structure was put in place when forms were done on paper.  They're
not on paper any more, thus the state can reduce the high barrier to entry
for small business entities by reducing the cost per entity, encouraging
many more small business entities to incorporate.

Geez.  I sound like Arthur Laffer.
