Corporations are owned by 401K owners, IRA owners, - pension plans, and individual shareholders

who buy and hold corporate stock.

When corporations have an after-tax profit, they either return the profit directly to shareholders (a “dividend) or they put it back into the company, re-investing it to grow the business.

When the business grows, the share price rises and the stock market goes up.

Lower wage individuals pay income taxes but most get that and more back in the form of credits and tax breaks.

Just be careful not to lump small business in with the large corporations.
