There is no point in debating someone who believes that taxes, which provide roads, sewers, police protection, schools, defense, drinking water, public health, FEMA, etc..., is robbery!
Weird how they did that before income taxes even existed..
Plenty. I used to work for a manufacturing company whose gross margin is about 10%. Gross margin is not net profit. You need to add overhead, lease and tax liability. The net may be only 3-5%.
However margin means nothing without looking at sales volume. You may make $0.01/loaf of bread sold but what if you can sell 1 million loaves every year?

The comment about robbery wasn't even about taxes but rather a question about how an increase in the minimum wage was going to be paid. The fact that a couple posters have gone on the taxes=robbery rant is confusing to me. Unless they themselves are confused. Which may be likely.
