I really think we need to take up a collection and buy y'all a microeconomics textbook for y'all to read and pass around.

Do as you wish but you really should save your money and buy some reading comprehension classes for yourself and a few others on this board!

I'll venture a guess that I am as well read on the subject as anyone on your side and EVERY microeconomics textbook I have ever seen says that ALL costs must be both accounted for and recovered if one wishes to stay in business for very long!

You got a microeconomics textbook that says corporate income taxes are a cost? What's the name of it.

Name me one company that had to go out of business because they paid income taxes on their profits!!

Then you should have no problem itemizing or at least identifying those "hidden taxes that aren't really taxes but are used to unnecessarily raise prices to consumers"...pigdog can't.

You are of like mind, self-proclaimed well read on the subject, why don't you give it a try?
