From my experience, this is one case where both sides are entrenched and refuse to accept the logic of the other side.
Same as the "prices should be stated with taxes included or not" debate. Good luck with that in the US. And with the metric system. And in other countries, driving on the left side of the road. It's culture, not logic.
- henrikschroder 10y ago> prices should be stated with taxes included or not In the US, sales tax differs wildly from state to state, and even from city to city. If you always had to include tax, you couldn't have any TV commercials where a company boasts about their price on something they sell, because it would be impossible to know how high the sales tax would be for every person watching. Places where tax always has to be included usually has a national sales tax or similar, making it possible to advertise prices with tax included.
