You go buy a sandwhich, you pay tax. You go buy clothes, you pay tax. You buy anything, tax, tax, tax.
But no one ever includes tax in the price.

j79zlr said:I quoted the wrong post, I was referring to X's post saying he gets less, I was trying to figure out how he would come to that conclusion considering that the tax is more.
