- zeroonetwothree 4y agoThe corporate income tax rate is already much lower than the top federal rates so you can already benefit from this. Except that you still owe taxes when your corporation gives the money to you (the individual).
- Closi 4y ago> Is there a reason corporations even pay taxes, versus just taxing individuals once they get money distributed to them from the corporation? Yes - because without corporation tax the revenues might get funneled out of the country and taxed elsewhere in tax avoidance schemes (both at the 'corporate' level in foreign-owned businesses, and at the individual level with the ability for the rich to setup shell corps to avoid income tax).
