Broader point of course is that someone else (the paper linked at the top) in fact did do a specific study on people’s attitudes to sales-based taxes
Right, but "everyone pays sales tax" attitude in the paper seems to be something different. "Everyone" I think means all consumers. Interesting though in light of US way of adding sales tax visibly (and annoyingly) at the till (which I thought was designed for unpopularity..?)
Something different from what? Everyone is a consumer, no? I don't really follow your point..
Different from question of DBCFT (perhaps not so much for economists thinking about incidence). Q in the paper seems to be about attitudes to sales tax vs federal income tax on individuals, rather than location of CIT in intl value chains
And framing these Qs is always important, so this may have required a shopper to publicly say a company shouldn't pay local taxes. Maybe it's a bit like the research that shows voters happy with higher taxes for public services but vote for parties who offer the opposite.
