Corporations Don't Pay Taxes — You Do. Here's How. (Ep. 337)

You've been told corporations pay taxes, but what if that's the biggest lie in the system? In this episode, Mary Jo breaks down who really pays for taxes, benefits, tariffs, and government programs—and why the consumer always ends up holding the bag. In Episode 337 of Farming Without the Bank, Mary Jo dives into Chapter 6 of Nelson Nash's Warehouse of Wealth: "Lies, Lies, and Lies." This episode exposes how taxes, Social Security, employee benefits, tariffs, credit card fees, and corporate expenses are never absorbed by businesses—they are passed directly to you, the consumer. From Social Security myths to corporate "tax hikes," from government spending to free coffee at the sale barn, this episode reframes how money actually flows through the economy and why financial literacy is so rare—and so dangerous to ignore. Key Takeaways: Corporations do not pay taxes; they collect them from consumers Employees pay 100% of Social Security, not "half." All benefits, perks, and expenses are built into prices or wages Government redistribution still starts with taxing the public Business owners have tax flexibility, but consumers do not Financial illiteracy keeps people trapped, believing money myths Chapters: (00:00) – The danger of financial lies (02:00) – Who really pays taxes?
