The idea of sales tax is ridiculous. Just because you're on the soil of some country, they think they should get something out of every trade. Taxing for land, services and resources I can understand. But just generally imposing a tax on trades/sales seems weird.

Is there more to "sales tax" than I understand.
Like if shops start selling goods for BTC (lightning), should the government be getting something out of it by law?
