Why?No. Of course not. It's a terrible plan.
Rick Perry has an economic plan. He wants the federal government to spend less money, and he wants huge tax cuts. Oh, and a balanced budget by 2020. Here's the rub: Perry's plan would drastically reduce the amount of money the government collects in taxes. Link to article
Aw, the naysayers cast off the winning strategy with "Oh, and a balanced budget by 2020." Gee, a balanced budget would destroy Obama's spendthrift legacy. Awwwwwwwwww
Most GOP tax plans make the budget situation worse, and this one is no exception.
Has the budget been worse or better with Democrats in control of Congress?
Why?No. Of course not. It's a terrible plan.
The history is that lower, simpler taxes and a more stable regulatory environment induce people to start or expand businesses and generate much more economic activity. I think the effects of Perry's plan are grossly underestimated.

Untrue.

You're kidding, right? Do you have any idea what the practical implications of an "optional flat tax" - two different tax regimes - would be? This would be a boon to accountants and IRS bureaucrats! Every year, people would do their taxes both ways, then decide to pay the lower. The idea that it would decrease bureaucracy is a laughable fairy tale sold to a gullible base that still believes cutting income taxes raises revenues. lol If you're going to have a flat tax, have a fucking flat tax! I might even support it! But not this weird pick-whatever-tax-regime-you-want.
Anyways, Perry has been getting raked over the coals by some conservatives for his plan.

Well, Toro, there are businesses that are very popular who run tv ads saying "We beat all competitor's rates."
What's so different about a government plan offering everyone to choose which rate they want--the high one or the low one?
Everybody will pick the low one.
As a tv adman would say, "Do you hear me now?"
Some people don't like others to have choices. Rick Perry gives you the choice.
If you want to hire more people, you take the lower rate and hire people with the savings.
If you want to be Lord Beneficent Foundation, you can feel good about giving more than you had to give when you're not condescending about all your brains, hot cars, hot chicks, super great stuff, etc.
See? There's a choice for everyone. Rick Perry is just reflecting the times, and it's about time you can get a bargain basement tax if you want one.
Why don't you write Governor Perry and tell him which ones work for you and why America would be a better place if he included them in his budget plan? You're a lot smarter about market issues than me, Mr. Toro. Governor Perry needs the best. I just make little quilts for wheelchair victims and the abuse center, do charity sewing, and admire bright people from many walks sharing their knowledge online here at USMB currently.You're kidding, right?

Well, if choice is a good thing, then why not more than two choices? Why not 10 or 20 different tax regimes to choose from?
In truth, the proposals of Gov. Rick Perry for American economics are only as sophisticated as farts during a sermon. Just ask about anyone in Texas. Psychoblues
Better yet, let's hear a quote from the link YOU PROVIDED:
Texas doesn't appear to be overextended. In a May report, Standard & Poor's gave the state an AA+ rating, citing its outperforming economy, strong cash management and constitutional limits on debt.
Thanks for providing, Inthemiddle.
Sorry, Inthemiddle. A drive through the Woodlands north of Houston and in areas between Dallas and Ft. Worth would tell you there's a lot of jobs here, and by the fabulous homes and yards, they're paid well.
Minimum wage jobs, filled by illegals drawn by Perry's free education for illegals plan.
I am in Texas. Folks here like Gov. Perry just fine.
He listens to good advice. Seems he does the best he can with what he is given.
That's one reason why I support him. He reveres men and women who served.

There really are a lot of good jobs here. I pass their homes every week.

And especially, he remembers veterans who made sacrifices for this country when others were too lazy to take off a couple of years and serve.
