Wishes for 2012

I'll take the last Hollywood actor over the Macaca Community Organizer any day of the week. Reagan made us a world class country again and beat the shit out of the Democrat Home team, while Obama's been one of the worst Presidents ever
 
My political hopes for America:

2. Congressional bills may have only 1 purpose, not many.
AGREED!!!!!!

No more "riders"!!!!!!

I wish for dems to have the balls to pass a budget, finally.

I wish taxes would be flat and based on sales so that everyone gets taxed and has some skin in the game.

I wish that Congress would stop out spending what it takes in at such a vast rate.

My prayers for a fiscally conservative sans socially conservative majority will never be met, but hope springs eternal every election.

There already are sale based taxes.

Everyone has some skin in the game.

State level taxation is a whole nuther ball game.

go to a Fed sales tax, you can toss the payroll tax.

fyi, I will be getting more back than I paid in this year. for the 3rd year straight.

Are the board conservatives aware of this?!

:eek:

Most should be, since if we did go to a Fed sales tax we could almost completly close the IRS. thus shrinking government, lower the cost of operation which, hopefully leads a lower debt.

You're proposal is heavily weighted against the poor who have to spend a much larger percentage of their pay checks to get by. It's a massive tax break for the wealthy and tax hike on the poor.


No thanks.


I've heard the argument 27 million times.

How so?

what study proves it won't work?


Economic Logic: How well does the flat tax work?


What does this mean for a flat tax in OECD countries? First, the efficiency gains of such a reform do not seem to be that important. Second, tax compliance is already relatively high, for example in the US, which makes the gains less important in this respect. In the case of the US, a flat tax has, however, still the merit of simplifying an incredibly complex tax system that is the bread and butter of too many accountants.

A Brief Guide to the Flat Tax

Unlike the current system, a flat tax is simple, fair, and good for growth. Instead of the 893 forms required by the current system,[4] a flat tax would use only two postcard-sized forms: one for labor income and the other for business and capital income. Unlike the current system, which discriminates based on the source, use, and level of income, a flat tax treats all taxpayers equally, fulfilling the "equal justice under law" principle etched above the main entrance to the U.S. Supreme Court building. And unlike the current system, which punishes people for contributing to the nation's wealth, a flat tax would lower marginal tax rates and eliminate the tax bias against saving and investment, thus ensuring better economic performance in a competitive global economy.

I didn't say it wouldn't work, any system "works".... I said I am against it because implementing such a system here and now in lieu of our current progressive system is effectively a large tax cut for the wealthy and a tax hike on the working poor.

No thanks.
 
First that We the People will come out the winner, not our so called government representatives.

Second that the morons in both parties currently seeking nomination for President experience an epiphany in which they realize they have absolutely nothing to offer this nation or its people.

Third, that current members of Congress (with rare exception) be given Pink Slips at the polls and sent home. And that this cleansing continue each election until all of them have been run out of town. They deserve to be tarred and feathered and then run out of town, but I'll settle for being run out of town.
