would that 46% also include the corporate taxes imbedded in the prices of everything we buy?

I believe so, but am not sure. I can’t remember exactly which foundation it was from, but it was a big name one like Cato or Heritage. Essentially they added up all of the different taxes we pay at all levels of Government and compared it to Soviet Russia, Communist China and host of other nations today. We were I believe #1 or #2 in taxes of all the data they could compile. Soviet Russia was just under us at something like 39% or so. I’m going off memory, so I’ll have to find that article, but it seems like it was 4 or so years ago, probably about when I made an FR account (I lurked before that). It could have been the foundation that Skousen set up, but I think it was Heritage. I’ll see what I can find.
