Much of what was said about the individual income tax can also be said of the corporate income tax. But there are some differences. Whereas individuals can vote, corporations cannot, so politicians encounter less resistance when they advocate raising the corporate tax. But ultimately, only individuals pay taxes,1so the corporate tax is a hidden tax, in the sense that those who ultimately pay it do not know that they are paying it. In that sense, then, taxing corporations is dishonest. It also seems unfair to assess a tax on persons who cannot vote, since they are being taxed without representation.
