90% would be an extraordinary profit margin. Virtually no business operates with a 90% profit margin. Startups certainly don't.


Ignore my numbers, my point was just that without knowing total amount spent on salaries, total net profit, and the tax rates on both, there's no way to state which is going to provide more taxes, and that therefore there's no point talking numbers on one side without the other side to match. (But yes, your point is accurate.)


And my point is that for any plausible set of numbers, you can state which will provide more taxes.
