In that example, you consume:
10x the water needing to be pumped through public pipes to your dishwashers
10x the trucks on the public roads bringing you supplies
10x the natural gas for the ovens pressing on the public pipelines
10x the delivery cars on the public roads
10x the liability of terrorists bombing all the trucks, delivery drivers, employees needing to be protected
10x the possibility (and ultimately the instance) of needing to call the public fire department
10x the cash on hand (and ultimately the liability) of getting robbed and needing to call the public police department
so 10x the taxes to pay for 10x the costs.
Also - your fucking argument is moot. It's a flat % tax, not cash on hand. Why the fuck does Bezos pay $0??? Why can we not just do a flat fucking percentage?? And fuck "incentives..." that's government picking winners and losers. If you really wanted to do that, hold rebates hostage for 2 years. If your business did what it said it would (growth, hiring, etc.), THEN you get some cash rebate or some shit. I don't know. I'm so sick of assholes gaming the system.
Nobody's on an island. The argument is about the waste, and if we can support the public shit for less.
That's not what I'm getting at
Why does the government get more money if I sell 1000 pizzas instead of 100? They had nothing to do with it.

Fine. Why do I pay more taxes if I charge 20 dollars per pizza instead of 10?
But I'm not against this. All I'm saying is there's no private businesses
You paying tax has no bearing on whether the business is private or not. You not being able to discriminate in regards to employee and customer does.
