As a fellow business owner, I feel your pain. I don't tax on it and I don't pay on it but who the hell knows?

This is why the Flat Tax (cue some Poli Board whacko) is the way to go. We should all just pay a flat amount on tangible goods we buy and keep the rest of our money.

I haven't kept up ... but is the Trump administration open to this?

It's odd that there isn't a set rule. The parish and state just want their respective 4.x% and that's it.

Just it's so much easier to file if I only claim actual tangible item sales.

Flat tax = the same income tax rate for everyone, regardless of income. What you describe is the Fair Tax, which is a much better idea and would allow us to pretty much shut down the IRS.
