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.

28% of $128 is $35.84.

I'm interested in my savings which have already been taxed by our current, evil system. These savings will now get hit for another 30% on my future purchases.

They are currently getting hit for 30% (exclusive, or 23% inclusive) by the taxes embedded in the price of everything you buy.
