Customers pay sales taxes, not corporations.
A $10 product with $1 sales tax means the corporation would make $1 less profit then selling the same product for $11 with $0 sales tax and the customer would pay $1 more than the same product for $10 with $0 sales tax
The customer would lose $1 more on the transaction due to the tax and the corporation would make $1 less profit on the transaction through the tax but the government would only gain $1 and not $2 due to the tax
In a sense both buyer & seller pay the tax
> if there must be taxes
Yes there has to be taxes. I don't like it either but that's how it has to be.
The Ancap fantasy is just that. A fantasy.
You either going to be paying governments or local warlords.take your pick
@Zeb @basedbagel
In the system I am proposing if there must be taxes
A customer who is not a corporation who is buying from someone who is not a corporation would not pay sales tax
In all other transactions such as
A corporation buying from a seller who is not a corporation
A corporation buying from a corporation
A corporation selling to a customer who is not a corporation
Only corporations would be required to keep records of taxes & to file tax rrcords
