Math isn't your strong point, is it?
(See post 73)

Gee, I hope you aren't referring to this from your #73 as an example of your math strong point:

In other words, for ever dollar spent, an additional 30 cents would be charged. That's 23%,not 30%.

Next you'll try to tell us there's an exclusive rate on income.

23% of the dollar, another 23% of the 23% of the dollar, another 23% of the 23% of the 23% of the dollar...

It’s easy!

Gee, I hope you aren't referring to this from your #73 as an example of your math strong point:

Touché. My wording was as bad as the post it replied to.

I should have said that for every $1.30 spent, .30 is taxes. And that is 23%. Just like the current system which is 'for every $1.30 earned, .30 is withheld for taxes'. Again, 23%.

That better?
