Subject: [socialcredit] The CPD and
Taxes.
If the price of an article for sale were $ 100
and on top of that the government levied a 10% Sales Tax, the cost to the
consumer is going to be $ 110 to purchase that item.
If we had a Compensated Price Discount in place,
and the discount rate for the particular period selected was
25%, the customer would, in effect, be paying $ 75 net for the
article, plus the $ 10 Sales Tax charged on the undiscounted price, for a
total actual cost to him of $ 85.
$ 110 - $ 85 = $25. He's getting the
article that would previously have cost him a total of $ 110 for only $
85. And the Government is getting the same amount of Sales Tax revenue
on each sale, only in all likelihood there'll be considerably more
sales. Have we not rather painlessly funded Government without
diminishing consumer purchasing power? And if the use of credit is
to lower prices in this manner, how can that possibly be
inflationary?
