If corporate taxes are the only thing standing between where we are now and the downfall of governments or the rise of global feudalism, we're already screwed. The corporate tax rate could be 0, and it really wouldn't make that big of a difference in terms of total tax revenue or government power (individual taxes still make up the vast majority of tax revenue).
