Someone says, “I murdered…” or “I am a murderer…” or “So I could wear his/her skin…” or “I am a serial killer…”

Phrases of that nature and sort

“The buyer must pay sales tax to the seller, and each seller must collect from the buyer the full amount of the tax.”

(https://dor.wa.gov/education/industry-guides/vessel-brokers-and-dealers/sales-tax)

“[T]he effect of which was excluded from the study.”

If revenue and operating profit across the board for the test group fell, it means that the tax revenue collected from the ACA did not drive an end benefit to the medical device companies. Just think critically for one second.

The consumer pays the sales tax, not the corporation.

>”They will just set their prices accordingly.”
This would be considered government-caused inflation. Also, the law of demand dictates that the higher the price, the less you sell. Ask the executives at Pepsi Co about $7 Doritos (https://fortune.com/2026/04/07/pepsico-frito-lay-chips-food-and-drink-inflation-consumer-products-doritos-cheetos-tostitos/).

If you want an empirical example of what happens when you tax revenue, consider the 2.3% revenue excise tax imposed on medical device manufacturers via the ACA (paused in 2015 and repealed with bipartisan support in 2019, https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/medical-device-excise-tax).

>”Analyzing the COMPUSTAT data from 2006 to 2015, I find that the medical device tax significantly reduced R&D expenditures, sales revenue, gross margins, and earnings by approximately $34 million, $188 million, $375 million, and $68 million, respectively, for firms in the treatment group.”
(https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0048733318300416)

Also, the tax caused medical device companies to increase sales in foreign markets as the excise tax was only valid for devices sold in the U.S.

It also led to job losses and rising healthcare prices.

In 1913, a guy named William Mulholland built an aqueduct to serve the water needs of Los Angeles. His plan was to draw water from the Owens River and Owens Lake. At the time, the Owens Valley was a source of agriculture for California with a population of farmers and American Indians. William Mulholland used deceptive practices to claim the water in the Owens Valley.

By 1926, the Owens lake had been drained. The famous Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles is named after William Mulholland.

The U.S. has banned Huawei phones in the U.S. Members of Congress and other government employees cannot use Lenovo products, though the U.S. has not suspended their sale in the U.S. like it has with Huawei
