And it even gets worse, when you figure out how much consumer prices are increased for taxes on the supply chain. It has to be a staggering number .... I wouldn't be surprised to find it approaching 70% overall for the average Joe. When I moved from IL back to MN the first thing that struck me was how much higher prices were for comparable goods. I believe this is a key factor in the why and how various 2nd and 3rd world countries with decent infrastructure are so darn cheap to live in.
