Yes, it's apparently the job of government to kill whatever is successful.
The proceeds are then used to buy votes for themselves.
There is a message on Newegg invoices about purchasers in Colorado.... Basically, Newegg is to send a statement to the State on the amount of purchases one makes... then that info is to be included on CO state tax return and sales taxes collected.
While retailer isn't collecting the sales tax, it ends up the same. Not sure if all retailers are up to speed on this. Newegg is the only notice I've seen so far.
that is what a left wing gov't would have you believe. it saps the strength of the strong and prevents the proper reallocation of resources to more economically efficient areas. capitalism is about creative destruction so new enterprises can come into existence, socialism and communism is about a command economy from a central gov't which thinks it knows better than the free market. in the end jobs are lost anyway because gov't subsidies cannot continue indefinitely and people won't start new businesses as they know the gov't will tax them to death.
