"Corporations are people, my friend!"

Corporations are certainly not pass through entities. They own assets, they exert influence on society. They benefit from government institutions. They amass wealth so that they can spend it to their benefit.

Maybe, like people, it makes more sense to tax them on revenue then on profit so they cannot invert to a cheaper jurisdiction?

Or am I a pass through entity? Arguably, most actual people are more pass through entities with respect to money then corporations. Corporations are far more likely than most individuals to amass wealth.
