Just the income tax of the business.

[The Pack Knight]

Well, lets see.. lets go with a small business, say a clothing store with $1,000,000 in sales per year. Now, the average clothing store has about a 5% net profit margin (inclusive;), so that'd be $50,000. That'd put them just in the 25% bracket, so that'd be 1.25% of their gross revenues. But, as we've said, the retail business's own income tax is only a small part of the embedded tax.

Do you really want me to dig up the Jorgenson study, or the Arduin, Laffer and Moore study?
