Of course it does. Again, politicians, in an effort to garner votes try to create a bogey man which they will vow to fight against. In this case, it's corporation which they tell us are all evil and don't pay enough in taxes.

What a lot of people don't realize is that corporation don't really pay taxes at all. The money that they pay in taxes is simply collected from the consumers. It is added into the cost of products and services that corporations provide.

The ultimate consumers pays all of the money into the federal government. Everyone else are just middle men.
