the idea that a corporation should pay taxes at all is what keeps the economy from REALLY expanding.
politicians come to the stupid and say"those bad corporations need to be taxed"

a corporation is a vehicle for doing business, not a person lining their pockets.

When a person profits from a corporation, there is a tax event. A corporation bringing in money is just an action of business, not a profit event. its not profit until a person puts it in their pocket. The government already taxes that but because of a stupid electorate, we tax money brought into the corp wether its profit or not.
that's wrong and it stifles the economy.
