Taxes are just a cost of doing business.
Joe, you are total economic illiterate which is typical of a liberal. If a tax is a cost of doing business then it is a cost passed on to customers in the form of higher prices. You pay the higher taxes Joe, not the business. ...
To believe that, you'd have to believe the firm isn't already charging its customers as much as it can. Do you think a firm can raise its prices at will without the risk of reducing its revenue by driving away some customers?
Dear, as i said, you are an economic pure illiterate. Its like you are a child. An apple costs a dollar and a Rolls Royce costs $300,000. Each price reflects costs. Its not coincidence that Rolls costs more than apple. The guy who sells the apple cant charge a penny more lest he be undersold by competition. His profits are next to nothing. Add a tax or a fertilizer and he has to raise the price by the exact amount of the tax or fertilizer cost to maintain his next to nothing profits.
Do you understand now?
Unless he can convince consumers that his apples are tastier and more juicy than his competitions. A Rolls Royce figuratively is tastier and more juicy than a Dodge.
dear, in a scientific experiment you hold all variables constant except the ones in question. Do you understand?
