re: #652 Idle Drifter

I heard mention of a 23% national sales tax except on eccentials little more than 15 minutes ago. That is bat shit crazy and it’ll kill the economy. Whatever the eccentials are that group will shrink in size so the Government could reclaim lost tax revenue as people just simply stop buying more and more goods.

As long as all other taxes, fees etc… are dropped it might work.
For all my taxing districts, and all the hidden fees in WA state 41% of my income in taxes.

I’d swap that for my gross paycheck and a 23% consumption tax in a heartbeat.
