What are Corporate Taxes? In the United States, companies have to pay tax to the government based on their income. Currently, the more money you earn, the more tax you have to pay. However, not everyone feels this should be the case.

How it all began…  1861 – first federal income tax (expired in ‘71)  1894 – first corporate income tax enacted, but outlawed soon after creation  1909 – excise tax on corporations based on income  1918 – IRS becomes legitimate and enforces taxes laws for government  1986 – Tax Reform Act of 1986 passed (Internal Revenue Code)  Income tax, Payroll tax, Estate tax, Gift tax, Excise tax

Currently

Opposing Views  Support High Tax:  Big corporations make a lot of money, so they should pay more  Give back to government to support economy  Support Low / Flat Tax:  Everyone should pay equal  More money for company means more employees

Republican View  People shouldn’t have to pay more tax because they made more money  Discourages entrepreneurship  Some believe in a flat tax where all individuals and corporations are taxed at the same rate

Democratic View  If you make more money, you should have to pay more money to support your country

Huntsman  Plans to eliminate “all tax expenditures, all loopholes, all deductions, all subsidies” on a revenue-neutral basis.

Gingrich  Approves of “loopholes”  Allows companies to have more power  Lower tax rates to something comfortable  Companies will comply, rather than dodge

Cain  plan  9% corporate tax  9% personal tax  9% sales tax
