As has been pointed out many times (and by many on these threads over the years) - it isn’t a “$100 purchase”. It’s more like a “$128 purchase”.

Not when the purchase is made with already taxed savings. LOL!

Get your concepts straight.

As soon as you get better at math. LOL!

I think that point was already made. You have to earn $128, which is taxed at 28%, in order to have $100 to purchase a $100 item.

Doesn’t matter - you already had to earn the $128 and pay the income tax on that ($28) to have the $100 to buy with. So in effect to you it was really a $128 purchase but you’re too smart to grasp that apparently.
