The fact is, that be it a mega corporation, or a ma & pop sole proprietorship, any businessman is going to consider taxes as another line item in their cost of doing business. Guess what, as that cost goes??? up, so does the price of their product or service to the consumer. It???s just that it???s no longer called a tax increase, but rather inflation. The simple fact is that any tax at any level , is eventually born by those who can???t pass it along any further, the working folks. Increases in taxes, is the surest way to promote run away inflation. The only way to effect a positive change in the national economy, is to lower taxes. This may not actually reduce prices of goods and services, but it may allow for wages to catch up, and this would have a stimulating effect. With the current condition of our economy, most importantly in middle America, I couldn???t imagine a less appropriate time to increase taxes at any level, for any reason. Barack Obama has made much of the idea of taxing businesses and not the 95% of the 40% that pay taxes in this country. Please let the people know that it???s simply not so. The working class has always taken it in the shorts, and his plan will be no different
