is this an issue that most voters on both sides can agree upon?
Not me.

Corporations don't pay taxes.

Their customers do.

This is about as basic as it gets.
Many economists wouldn't agree with that.

How does it even make sense? That wouldn't mean companies charge more as they become more profitable to account for marginal tax rates. That's not what happens because the market generally sets the price, not the profit margin.
Not in all cases.

Hence "generally". But there are all kinds of different cases - it goes by industry. Trying to paint with a broad brush and calling it "basic" is oversimplification to the point of inaccuracy.

The people paying the most taxes.
Pity the rich victims of evil government.
I just answered your question.
