the corporation pays 15-25%, and then the shareholder pays another 15-45% making the true corporate tax rate 30-70% depending on how it's structured. it's intellectually bankrupt to only count part of the tab. do you really like doublespeak that much that you need it to try and make a point? |
you do know you can't add percentages like that, right?
if I take 25% out and then another 25%, that doesn't equal 50%.
100 - 25 = 75.
75 - 1/4*75 ~ 56. |
