Conservatives know this. This is why we aren't in favor of tax hikes on the rich and on businesses because ultimately they aren't the ones going to pay it. Glad to see you finally understand.

But they support all KINDS of sales taxes...because, uh, don't tax the rich guy just tax the poor guy direct?

I never realized that the rich were exempt from sales taxes. Huh.

I never realized it affected rich people as much as poor people.

Well, as someone who works with the poor on a daily basis, sales tax RARELY affects them. In all my years working with them, I've never once heard one of them complain about sales tax. 

I would imagine it affects the rich more as they're capable of purchasing more things and would end up paying more in sales tax. But, what would I know? In my world, the rich buy more than the poor.

If the "eliminate income tax and replace it with a sales tax" became a thing, a lot of products like food, clothing, rent and a few categories would have to be exempt.
