Still plenty left to pay their business taxes.

[maaaaattttt]

And if it’s employees? Do you ask them to contribute to the company’s taxes as well? After they’ve paid their own?

[roflmao123]

You pay them less money so you can afford your taxes, like literally everyone else.

So on the $200,000 it’s reasonable to you that they have to pay $120,000 ($80k income+$40k business) in taxes?

[roflmao123]

Two people earning $100k each would pay $28k income taxes each, totaling $56k. Where did this $80k come from?

[jameshart]

The company doesn’t have any money to pay those taxes with.

If you give the company more money to use to cover its tax bill, then that further increases the company’s taxable income.

Pay less salary so you can pay your taxes? This isn't as complicated as y'all seem to want to make it.
