Where do you think those individuals get their income to pay income and payroll taxes? They get it from the profit made by corporations and other businesses. Or, if they are Government employees, they get their income from the Government who got it from corporations and other private businesses. I think that almost all wealth and income in the country comes from the profits made by private businesses.
