On Ramp

Consider this... if you buy a six pack of beer you are paying all the employer side of social security taxes of EVERY step in the manufacturing process from growing grain and hops, to irrigation, fertilizer, bauxite (aluminium smelting to make cans) transportation, water, beer fermenting, transportation, distribution, retail sales, etc. Those costs get passed onto the ultimate end user. Or do you think someone else eats those costs? That's what I mean about hidden taxes.
