They also have no sales tax. With him closing off this pathway and Republicans refuse to tax corporations this leaves only one revenue source available... Anyone want to guess what that is?
If you guessed mass fines/tickets, imprisonment, and slavery you are correct.
We most certainly do have sales taxes.

They have a weekend in August where there is no sales tax on clothing and other things, but there is sales tax other than that. The only general exception to sales tax is on unprocessed groceries
