False statement created by the sales tax lobby.
Real prices will remain essentially unchanged. We can't (sales) tax ourselves into prosperity.
Thanks. I agree with you and have argued the same point in the past.
As a manufacturer, I know that my costs will change less than 2% from the NRST, so no change will occur in my prices and yet, at the same time, the cost to my customers will go up 23% due to the NRST. Guess what happens to my business then and how many people I will have to lay off.
