Yet the information presented to the public is distorted in a way to mislead the average person that is used to figuring the normal sales tax in most states.

Please demonstrate.

"Please demonstrate"

A $1 item plus 5% sales tax= $1.05. Correct?

A $1 item under the (as advertised) 23% Fairy tax = ???

It sure as hell isn't the $1.23 most would think it was the way the plan is being advertised.

More like $1.30 depending how you round up/down.
