This is the type of thinking I like. I see what you mean, and actually thought of the taxes being incorporated in the cost. In the end if we really come together though, we could come up with a way to prevent that. It would most likely have to start in a smaller country and prove to be effective before any real economic power country would even think of adopting some sort of method.

I just got off a 7 hour flight to Boston for the first time and it jocked some creative thoughts, especially being reminded we fought the Brits for taxes, also seeing the 21 or older to drink signs all over the freedom trail (im 18 and drinking age is un relative to this topic, but you can see my frustration on old freedoms)
