I’m still waiting to hear Carly Fiorina's three page tax plan

[Luddly Neddite]

It's just like the other R candidate's "plans". Take from the poor and give to the rich while sending business to China, India and Mexico.

This Is What Carly Fiorina's Three Page Tax Code Looks Like

This is what one would look like............In this case 19% with lower income exemptions..............Not hers but sample of what one looks like.

How do you know that? I cannot find her three page tax plan anywhere. All I can find are what others suggest it is.

How about my 32 word tax plan?

The Sixteenth Amendment is hereby repealed and Congress is henceforth forbidden to lay ``any`` tax or burden calculated from profits, gains, interest, salaries, wages, tips, inheritances or any other lawfully realized money.

Under those words, Congress would once again have to raise its revenue by taxing consumption as our founders intended!


Hamilton stresses in Federalist No 21 regarding taxes on articles of consumption:

“There is no method of steering clear of this inconvenience, but by authorizing the national government to raise its own revenues in its own way. Imposts, excises, and, in general, all duties upon articles of consumption, may be compared to a fluid, which will, in time, find its level with the means of paying them. The amount to be contributed by each citizen will in a degree be at his own option, and can be regulated by an attention to his resources. The rich may be extravagant, the poor can be frugal; and private oppression may always be avoided by a judicious selection of objects proper for such impositions. If inequalities should arise in some States from duties on particular objects, these will, in all probability, be counter balanced by proportional inequalities in other States, from the duties on other objects. In the course of time and things, an equilibrium, as far as it is attainable in so complicated a subject, will be established everywhere. Or, if inequalities should still exist, they would neither be so great in their degree, so uniform in their operation, nor so odious in their appearance, as those which would necessarily spring from quotas, upon any scale that can possibly be devised.


It is a signal advantage of taxes on articles of consumption that they contain in their own nature a security against excess. They prescribe their own limit; which cannot be exceeded without defeating the end proposed, that is, an extension of the revenue. When applied to this object, the saying is as just as it is witty, that, "in political arithmetic, two and two do not always make four .'' If duties are too high, they lessen the consumption; the collection is eluded; and the product to the treasury is not so great as when they are confined within proper and moderate bounds. This forms a complete barrier against any material oppression of the citizens by taxes of this class, and is itself a natural limitation of the power of imposing them.”

The main reason why our Washington Establishment friendly candidates want to keep the income tax alive is, it provides the nefarious powers needed to plunder what the America people produce and allows the Establishment to control and manipulate almost every aspect of their lives. Returning to our founder's plan to tax consumption would remove the iron fist from America's businesses and working people's necks and return the tax liberty our founders intended.

Republican candidates who proposes keeping alive the "income tax" whether it is flat, graduated, or progressive is an indication they are either very stupid, or in bed with the Establishment!

“…..with all these blessings, what more is necessary to make us a happy and a prosperous people? Still one thing more, fellow-citizens—a wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicities“. Thomas Jefferson, First Inaugural Address
