Repeal the 16th amendment and I'm all for consumption taxes. Slits the IRS's throat for the most part AND ends redistribution of wealth. Sure, everything gets more expensive, at a flat rate, but if you don't consume or find ways to meet your needs with less consumption, all the better. You're taxed less.Guess what, the oils companies are not Seiu or General Electric so they don't deserve any of the federal tax breaks. We wouldn't have to put up with such idiotic crap if we were under the Fair Tax system.
No more April 15th. No more 'second christmas' for poor people. No more rampant thievery from achievers. No more wasting of resources by businesses collecting taxes on their employees and giving the nation an interest free loan.
It's a great concept... but until the income tax is constitutionally repealed, it is DANGEROUS. You cannot dare risk both happening at the same time. It would spawn rampant government growth, waste and oppression as they'd find new ways to waste our money for friends and buy votes.
