Bout 20 years ago somebody did a study of all the taxes that merely apply to a loaf of bread. Not the sales tax on the bread itself, but the fuel tax on the gas used to transport it from bakery to store, the tax on the phone call to place the order for it, etc. They found like 150 taxes that led to an increase in the price of a loaf of bread.
