Unless you're talking about employee or consumer taxes, but that's unrelated to businesses passing around money.
Would be funny if individuals could do the same. "Sorry IRS, even though my income is $100k, the cost of living took all of that revenue."
When you own your own business that’s pretty much how it works.

It's all non-taxable service/infrastructure/personnel deals and not cash.
