Under fire, Herman Cain modifies '9-9-9' plan - latimes.com
Herman Cain's "9-9-9" tax plan lost some its trademark simplicity today when the Republican presidential hopeful carved out a sales tax exemption for the poor.
"We"re not going to throw the people at the poverty level under the bus," Cain told an audience at the Western Republican Leadership Conference. "No, we're not going to do that.

Cain offered no details on how he would spare the poor from the federal sales tax.
