When you buy Strongbox, Throttlebox, or Clonebox, you are paying more because it has to cover our corporate taxes, the 50% increase in our health insurance costs, and other government crap.
I'm tempted to list the real cost on our order page, like the phone companies show you that half of your bill is taxes:
Strongbox itself: $80
Fed corp tax recovery: $30
Payroll tax recovery: $35
Local tax recovery: $10
Obama care recovery: $39
Overall, roughly 50% of the cost of everything you buy is due to various taxes.
Saying you want more taxes on businesses just means you want everything you buy to cost more.

if you are paying 50% of your product in taxes time to fire your cpa and an FYI my health insurance has gone up every year for ten yrs Ive had it. So I guess they had a crystal ball and knew Obama care was coming.
