This is an argument for less levels of taxation, ie sales tax should only be at state and not county level.

Almost every other country in the world works fine without bait'n'switching their citizens at every single transaction.

The thing is though, it isn't bait and switch. Everyone know exactly what it happening. I remember learning it when I was 7 - it isn't difficult.

I get that it's weird if you aren't used to it, but it really isn't the big deal people (that don't have to even deal with it) make it out to be.
