**We are pausing our current series to bring you five timely episodes surrounding suggested new tax policies**

In this new series, we delve into the complexities of corporate taxation and its implications for individual investors. We argue that while raising taxes on corporations may seem like an attractive solution for increasing government revenue, the actual burden often trickles down to shareholders, employees, and consumers.

This episode highlights the intricate flow of money through corporations, emphasizing that corporations are not standalone entities but rather integral components of the economy that directly impact personal finances. By increasing corporate taxes, the ripple effects can lead to reduced dividends, lower capital appreciation, and higher consumer prices.

We stress the importance of understanding these dynamics, as they affect retirement savings and investment returns, making it crucial for listeners to grasp how such policies could impact their personal financial situations.
