re: Corporate income tax is borne primarily by labor and workers, research shows.

I think you are overstating what that article argues to the point of contradicting yourself.

quote:

---

Corporations do not pay taxes. They collect them.

---

How could the above be correct if:

quote:

---

labor, through reduced wages, pay 45-75%

---

instead of 100%?

From the article, where it refers to the current state of the body of literature:

quote:

---

Correcting for the overstatement, and assuming such returns determine incidence, implies a business tax incidence that is roughly split 50-50 between capital and labor, more in line with the empirical literature.

---

It sounds like this guy is saying that corporations in fact pay a significant chunk, rather than it all being passed down, as the first quote above (by you) implies.
