Same place as federal employees get paid from lewislynn when they get taxed by both the federal government and state governments under income and payroll taxes today.

The taxbase as a whole.

Are you recommending that government employees not pay a National Retail Sales Tax or Income/Payroll taxes today, because they get there money from taxes lewislynn?

Please note that when a government purchases goods from retail suppliers today it pays the same taxes levied and embedded in the prices of those goods as everyone else.

Not according to Wisconson tax law. Apparently you read it, yet still don't understand the simple wording.

Sales of goods and services to the federal government or to any of its incorporated or unincorporated agencies or instrumentalities are exempt from the sales tax.

Taxing purchases by the federal government would violate the U.S. Constitution, so the fiscal effect of this exemption has not been estimated.

Which part do you not understand, specifically?

Other than possible dementia, I have no idea what prompted you to ask that stupid question.

Deducting taxes from wages is one thing. giving the impression that the government is taxing itself for sales and services as if it has money to pay itself is quite another.

BTW, the sales tax on "any government" payroll is ON the payroll, not deducted from it....BIG HUGE DIFFERENCE.
