You'd see an increase in purchase prices of just over 1%, on average.
Fine. And if someone can compete they’d lower prices. And with first 100k exempt from income so want? Big ticket items would pay more tax than fruit loops.
Give and take regardless of where you dig
a legend and an out of work bum look a lot alike, daddy.
How about if there is no “income tax” on corporations? But a revenue tax? 1 or 2%? Pick a number.
State income taxes or the federal corp tax? For state taxes I assume Amazon will just claim most of the revenue is earned out of state, thus making it necessary that every state follows suit and institutes a similar tax.

If you want me to design the system from scratch it's entirely on personal income and wealth. Get rid of everything else:
sales tax
corporate tax
excise tax
Exempt the bottom 50% of the population from all taxation. Then start progressively taxing income from 20% up to 95% and wealth from 1% up to 10%. No exemptions no deductions.
Or... to be an American citizen then all your wealth is patriated as American assets. Zero offshore holdings. Otherwise you're a financial illegal alien and your brats will sleep in a WalMart child prison.
Also: everything a company extends you is income: your insurance, your options, your company car, your jet, your business dinner, your Knicks tickets.

Well, the poorest people filing taxes don't pay much, some receiving net tax subsidies. Taxing revenues is essentially a sales tax under a different name. So while you're not directly taxing the poor at a higher rate than before, you're lessening their purchasing power - making life even tougher for them.

"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

Mookie thinks all income is income. Shouldn’t be 50% are winners and 50% are losers. There is a number out there where your cross from exempt into taxable. Again 90k for family income isn’t even middle class.
Jared and Ivanka should be hitting a high bracket on their 82mm

Then call it a single exemption up to the median income, and the median wealth, respectively.

What is US gdp?
At some point all citizens are responsible for what is provided to them. If you pay a couple points on purchase and nothing else, good for you.

$18.62 trillion in 2016. As always with economics, final numbers are lagged a few years before reporting.
I'm not fully against a small pittance coming from everyone; it's good for the electorate to all have some skin in the game when it comes to government's financial doings. That said, the 1% federal sales tax is only enough to cover about 33% of the federal budget. You can't cut much else for taxes if your aim is to eliminate the deficit.
