wrong.

If I sell double with the same number of employees then I have lost profits. (and double the number of tax transactions) If I have the same number of employees now with more sales the cost is still fixed.

The sales tax TAKES profits that the government had nothing to do with producing.

more productivity should mean more profits not more taxes and more tax record keeping.

Again it just shows it Fair Sales Tax Scam is advocated by people who have no clue about work.

all tax systems do that. Just in different ways.

You know that's not true. The sales tax is collected from your customer and passed on.
