Unicorn Steed and Income Tax

I've found a large number of answers to similar questions but most of them involve caveats that don't make the answers clear universally one way or another.

Player A has Unicorn Steed in play. Player B uses income tax card on player C. Is player A protected because income tax is a curse, or does player A have to discard because s/he was not hit with the curse, but rather suffering the effects of another player being cursed?

I would like to know the answar to this question. We had a rather loud discussion on this matter.

Unicorn Steed protects you from the Curse if it is played by another player, even if it's not played directly on you, because the Curse explicitly affects everyone.

Does that mean the Curse doesn't affect anyone or just the Unicorn rider?

Unicorn Steed doesn't cancel the Curse, just says you can't be affected by it.
