Those taxes are a cost of doing business in the state - akin to the rent on a property. If nobody wants to rent your property at your asking price, you can let it sit empty and get zero, or lower your price and get more than zero. You are not "forgoing" anything by lowering your price in that case. You never had that revenue to give up in the first place.
