“I don’t understand what you mean when you say don’t forget to deduct 9% from current savings?”

Money is just worthless paper until it is spent. When you spend those savings they would be worth 9% less.

The sales tax is on new goods. So you could use your savings to buy a used car or pay your mortgage payment or pay other bills, etc.

You are intellectually dishonest, why are you even on FR? Why don’t you go spend time with OWS folks.
