I'm always blown away by how high taxes are in the USA.

A federal corporate tax of 21% - and states can tax you even more? Meanwhile you can incorporate in Europe paying 10% (or 5% in Malta, if you setup a holding company, or 4% in Canary Islands if you invest 50k-100k and hire 3-5 people). The UK is taxing companies at 19% (even if it's due to increase to 25% to cover COVID's expenses).
