Very painful to see Corporate income taxes @ 8%, vs. Personal income taxes @ 36%. on the income pie chart^

However, not at all surprised. That stat would arguably make the most material difference to voters, if only they knew about it.

Edit: Adds another degree of pain when you consider that the CEO-to-worker pay ratio reached 281-to-1 in 2024.

Why should it be painful that all personal federal incomes taxes produce 4x the income as the federal taxes on all corporations?
