Which is all well and good but a group of people organized in a company create an entity that is separate from that of any member or subset of the group. It has its own finances, a collective will, assets, debts, income.

I see no contradiction in taxing companies in a manner generally consistent with that of a person and treating employees of the company as a type of laborer paid by this entity.

Families. Don't. Exist. apparently either. The only fiction is that we anthropomorphize the group like it's singular. That doesn't mean that the group isn't a thing unto itself.

I would hope you don't think of yourself as just a mound of cells.
