Dynamic meaning changing. You don't even have a clue what the hell a retail sales tax is and how it has been implemented in our country already, so I don't think I need to take your shit. Look up U.S. history, not canadian.

So, before you read someone's report on why income tax is gay and sales tax is good, drag your ass through a few years of business school, or move to a country that has sales tax.

MY COUNTRY ALREADY FUCKING HAS A STATE AND LOCAL SALES TAX, AND IT HAS WORKED QUITE WELL!!! How about you drag your ass through american politics, or shut up if you have no clue what you are talking about.

Aside from that, why don't you read the article, Keynes?
