No, but it could be argued that a "sales tax" is just another form of income tax. Typically the more someone makes, the more they spend proportionally. Of course there are exceptions. But I don't know very many poor people who drive BMW's or rich people who drive Saturns. Most people spend in relation to what they earn.
I've never added up what I pay in income tax, plus social security tax, plus property tax, plus sales tax, plus inventory/property tax, plus payroll tax, plus plus plus... I'm pretty sure it's a substantial amount!
