    But its a cost that's passed down the line.

    Just like payroll taxes. The employee is the one that really pays it, and is just added in to the cost of labor to the employer.

    If I procure a rock for 1 dollar and sell it for 2 dollars to you, I just made 1 dollar at your expense.

    How are taxes on earnings passed down the line?

    But the buyer is richer one rock, that they value at least 2 or more dollars for.

    Weird way of thinking about it. What if I need that rock to make a living and it generates $5 in income?

    It's money that can't go into wages, lowering prices, or increasing stock price.

    oh, then the company is richer for the society in which it operates which it values by the amount of tax it is willingly exposed to.

    stock price sure, but the market is what sets wages and prices.

    lol, if it was going there it wouldn't be considered profit.

    But a part that makes up that market and its cost, is taxes.

    Not taxes that come out of earnings

    I saw a separate headline earlier today that I did not click on that I'll paraphrase as reading, "Democratic Voters ask, 'Isn't there someone else?'"

    It's coming. Prepare accordingly.
