Most states do not have a FEDERAL SALES tax which shows me just how young and how little you know about the taxes being paid. Both your state sales and income taxes stay in the state but your federal taxes do not. Tell me exactly what a Federal Sales Tax is?? I live in TX and have no Federal Sales Tax or State income taxes.
Zero states have a federal sales tax. What are you talking about?
I am waiting for you to explain how income tax increases increase demand which seems to be the left argument in that belief we don't collect enough income taxes. In your case we apparently get none as your deductions prevent you from paying taxes and you give the Federal Govt. an interest free loan or use of your money for a year with withholding.
Zero people on the left say that raising income tax increases demand.
People on the left say that raising income tax hurts demand less than raising sales tax, dollar-for-dollar.
In summary, try addressing the actual messages being written instead of typing random crap with no bearing on the discussion. Otherwise... Bye!
