Trump is without a doubt one of the richest people in America. The Trump Organisation alone is one of the largest businesses in the US. The organisation is currently holding the 48th spot in america's largest private companies list.
The thing is Trump doesn't pay taxes like big corporations do. Through a special part of the tax code he is able to pay only individual tax rate.
Now to put in perspective a normal employee pays only the individual one. While the owner has to pay the corporate and the individual tax. Both usually amount to around 32% but there is a way to pay less.
Instead of being a normal business, Trump registers his companies as a "pass-through organisation." This allows him to only pay the individual tax of an average 19% only. But how is that possible?!
Well at first the system was designed to help small businesses but it ended up helping big corporations with less than 100 share holders to pay lower taxes.
This is a huge problem when you consider that 16% of all pass-through corporations have more than 150 employees.
The Trump Campaign ,however, wants to help those businesses even more. What Trump wants is to force all pass-through businesses to go through the traditional corporate tax and individual tax way while lowering the corporate tax to only 15%.
What Paul Ryan wants to do ,however, is create a whole new system for pass-through businesses where they only pay 25%. For large corporations like The Trump Organisation this means huge tax cuts.
Trump and Paul Ryan believe that by lowering the corporate tax the wages will go up which is doubted by many economists. What is know for a fact ,however, is that Trump will become much richer.
