Corporations-- a Frankenstein's monster created by stitching together political government and businesses.
Corporations are the key feature of the economic system corporatism; also known as fascism, a "public/private partnership", or "crony capitalism".
Corporatism is not capitalism* and the two systems can't coexist. Where political government exists, capitalism can't.
Corporatism uses government and its legislation to manipulate and destroy the market; to prop up government-sanctioned monopolies (the only kind that can exist for long) and to prevent competition. Government uses corporations to finance rights violations and to manipulate the people, but with plausible deniability. Corporations are government and government is corporations.
Calls to raise "taxes" on corporations are a sign of economic ignorance.
*Capitalism is the market-- business regulated by "the invisible hand"; the aggregate actions of every individual choice. It has everything to do with society and nothing to do with the State.

Not sure about the US, but in Canada people and corporations are the same thing as far as the law is concerned.
From the Interpretations Act definitions section:
So are calls to raise taxes on corporations a call to raise taxes on people without anyone realizing? Who knows.

Many (or most) "laws" are based in ignorance, just like the ones which consider humans and corporations as the same thing ("legally").
And yes, all calls to raise "taxes" on corporations ONLY raise "taxes" on you and me. I had a link to that point in the body of the post, but here it is again: https://blog.kentforliberty.com/2016/02/taxing-big-business.html
