6% tax on food but 0% tax on guns. Priorities right?

Just shoot your food.

Yep, the path of least resistance would be to go hunt and grow food at this point.

That’s so interesting, I’ve never heard that guns are exempt from sales tax in idaho. I don’t see that as a carve out in their tax code, either, but I’m not a legal expert. Do you have a source?

Read it here https://thegunzone.com/what-is-the-idaho-sale-state-tax-on-a-firearm/

but not finding any meaningful wording on the tax commission site. Could be wrong.

There’s some fuzzy language around hunting: https://tax.idaho.gov/taxes/sales-use/exemptions/types-of-exemptions/
