Scott,
I know that we are required to pay sales tax when you file your state tax return. Some people, actually 99.999999999% choose not to. You admited you are of of the 99.999999999% that chooses not to do it.
Facts can be distorted. Double taxation is all over the place. It is unfortunate that too many people are blind to see it. Whatever the government says it must be for our own good.
Paying tax on money that has already been taxed is double taxation. Take a 401(k), for example, you do not pay income tax on that money, except city income tax. Why? Because when you withdrawl that money, the state and feds get to tax that money as income. The local city tax is not allowed to tax 401(k) withdrawls. So they get thier tax before it is deposited into the 401(k) account. Single taxation.
As for the suggestin you made, only a moron thinks the way you do.
Tom
