The top corporate tax rate had been ~35% for roughly 25 years ; in 2018 it dropped to 21% and wage growth has indeed increased since 2018. Were wages positively affected by the lower corporate tax rate? I don’t know, so many factors affect the economy; corporations might choose to lower prices or do more research on better products or issue greater dividends to attract capital for expansion. I was just making the point that we humans end up paying somehow for the spending that the government chooses for us and that I would rather make these tax costs more visible to the people actually paying the taxes.
