You need to go take Math 101 too. Where did you learn your math in a government school? LOL! 23% of 100 is not 30 stupid! It is 23. Just think of it as 1% = 1$.

You make a lot of assumptions too. For one thing taxes are different in every state, and you are saying every state has the same tax code. You are also assuming that prices will remain the same, and NOTHING will go down. See you are either intentionally doing this, or lack the understanding of why prices are the way they are. In other you do not think corporations factor in taxes before they set a price.

I could go on and on about this, but I am not going to waste my time. If lies were measured in the brightness of light. Then you would be the Sun regarding this piece of $hit!

LOL, you call me ignorant and you make a statement like that! Learn about the Fair Tax and get back to me. For an item that costs $100, the retailer has to add $30 to it for a total of $130. The so-called '23% tax' is 23% of the after tax price of $130. The retailer keeps $100 and sends in $30 to the tax collector. If you had a clue about the bill you would know that.

I realize that, that is why I took the total of what states collect now of income and sales tax and averaged it out what a typical state would have to charge to make up for that revenue. My analysis is rock solid.
