I am sorry, I probably didn't word it too well. My point is that corporation may say that the tax a worker pays is actually their tax and they use that to justify why they pay next to no tax themselves. For example it is said that Amazon pays little tax in comparison to their profits and politicians use the argument that Amazon provide jobs and the workers pays tax, as if it was the Amazon who pays those taxes. Shifting the blame on the victim. One reason that workers pay so much tax is because corporations don't. Corporations then enjoy multi billion profits and workers barely can get by.
