As for corporate taxes in general, let's abolish them altogether. Since it is the consumer that pays those taxes in the end, let's eliminate the waste of collecting them mid-stream and wait until the end, i.e. the consumer, to collect them. We should also eliminate the taxes on dividends paid to shareholders.

That is how it should be. The tax charged to the middle man is the same as the gross receipts tax on fuel. We pay tax on the tax when we buy gas.
