Reply #10: They were talking 23%,plus local and State sales tax...

That adds up to over 31% where I live. Problem is that won't be enough on the Federal level. It might start at 23 but it won't be their for long. Thats 31% on a new house,new car new everything. They claim it will end cheating on income tax. Bawhahahah,are you kidding,someone self -employed could EASILY do a job for someone,collect the 31% tax and pocket it for him or herself--31% additional in their pocket isn't chickenfeed. Actually it will ENCOURAGE more cheating because you'd NEVER get caught if you did it right.

Rich asses like Pillboy go from paying 35% income taxes (which would be over 8 million)to paying NOTHING except sales tax. Does ANYONE suppose Rush could by enough stuff (legally) to make up for the 8 million the Feds would lose in 365 days?

HELL NO,so where would it come from?? Simple the working and lower class would pay MORE in than what they pay now.
