Silly idea.

The governments would collect the taxes from the bases. The bases would pass on the taxes to the traders in the form of adjusting the prices of the commodities.

Imo, we already pay these taxes, we just don't see it. Value-Added Tax is levied at source. Why create a whole bunch of paperwork when you can just tax the bases, not the individual traders.

It would be like having a government official outside every shop in town, and when you came out, they would ask to see what you had bought, and then ask for a couple of quid as well. Much better to levy a VAT on the shop-keeper, and make him pay the taxes in monthly/quarterly installments.

Tax Manhatten! Yus!
