This apparently some Melei stuff. I never gave all the possible inputs to the aggregate sales tax any thought.

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this elsewhere, but in Belize we got receipts that said "Taxes Extorted".
I like making these things more apparent. My understanding is that gas stations used to show the gas tax, but it made voters so angry that the government now requires them to only show the combined price.

It is quite common in Japan to have prices without taxes. I am surprised American people are surprised haha.

Like time I checked breathing recycles carbon in the loop (CO2 in air is collected by plants that collect solar energy -> we eat plants -> we exhale CO2 created from releasing chemical energy).
And burning fossil fuels add ADDITIONAL carbon to the current conditions system (carbon was blocked from the ecosystem loop hidden underground -> we extract it to the surface -> we burn it and release into atmosphere)
So, with due respect, comparing it to the breathing is just plain stupid.
