This is getting pretty insane,

look at this,

You pay a plumber $100.

After tax, the plumber keeps $70.

The plumber pays a house cleaner $70.

After tax, the cleaner keeps $49.

The cleaner pays a delivery driver $49.

After tax, the driver keeps about $34.

The driver pays a mechanic $34.

After tax, the mechanic keeps about $24.

The mechanic pays a server $24.

After tax, the server keeps about $17.

Keep repeating the process.

Each time the money moves, more gets taxed until the gov has collected nearly the whole original $100.

oh and now introduce money printing / inflation...

we are getting close to another tea party if you ask me
