Businesses merely collect from individuals through higher prices and lower pay and return on capital investment and remit them to government.

No, they don't. Not if people don't patronize them.

People will pay those taxes if they agree to a national sales tax.

Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus, spammer.

I gather you intend not patronize any businesses then, to avoid being taxed again on your ROTH payments.

Just as the pay those taxes today in purchasing anything at all by financing the income and payroll taxes that businesses remit to government. Primary difference between how we are taxed today is under an National Retail Sales Tax system we will know just how much government is costing us instead of it being hidden from our view as citizens and voters.

Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus,

Interesting proposition, especially as you have been false in many of your assumptions.

However even this old latin goody fails close analysis in that one may be wrong in small and immaterial assumptions and yet quite reasonably be very accurate in others and the edifice stands as a whole.

spammer.

Let me guess, your definition of spam is any uncomfortable fact or exposure to reality when it might upset your world view.
