Federal taxes and associated compliance costs comprise an average of 25.9 percent of prices of our goods and services.
If 25% of the total price is tax costs already paid it sorta makes you wonder how 50% off or even 25% off sales are possible.

Ever hear of overstock sales? How about loss-leaders?
