Impact of Biden's Corporate Tax Hike
Pres. Joe Biden is taking it seriously to increase the corporate tax to 28 percent. This is to fund his proposed $2.25 trillion infrastructure package. It can be remembered that the Republicans lowered the corporate tax from 35 to 21 percent in 2017.
According to a recently published article in The Hill, around 1 million jobs would be lost if Biden will increase the corporate tax to 28 percent. This is based on the findings of the study that the National Association of Manufacturers conducted.
