Will your taxes eventually be paying Corporations?

Below is American taxation revenue, in Millions of dollars, in the following order across : Year : Income Tax Revenue : Company Tax Revenue

It's an Excel doc, so it doesn't paste in properly. I've removed years so only every 5 years shows for earlier years.


In 1934 the Income Tax to Company Tax ratio was 420 : 364 = 1.15 : 1
In 2011 the Income Tax to Company Tax ratio was 1091473 : 181085 = 6.03 : 1
The growing divide in tax revenue between 1934 & 2011 is 6.03 : 1.15 = 5.24

In other words (and in the simplest terms), Income Tax revenue has increased at 5.24 times the amount of Company tax.

And effectively - where companies used to contribute almost 50% of tax revenue, they now only contribute 100 / 7.03 = 14.22% of tax revenue (you use 7.03 because the total tax revenue of of the ratio of 1:6.03=7.03, and you divide that into 1oo because that gives you the percentage value of 1, which is the company tax component) .

Income tax payers are making up (ie paying % more for) for the historical difference (ie % loss) in revenue that companies used to pay .

Why is it occurring?
What forces are at work to move it in this direction?
What outcome is this tax pattern going to result in?


As a footnote : It could easily be argued that between 1934 and 2011 income income tax payers have effectively subsidised companies tax contribution to federal tax revenue.
