And which tax proposal do you support? Fair tax? Flat tax?
Federal Sales Tax...
Will it happen?
Nope, but there is my answer for you...
aka a VAT and go the way of Europe...........no thanks........
Flat tax on income..............no deductions..........
Spending cuts to 18% of GDP..........which is the historical average since WWII.
Our Federal Budget is more than the GDP of any other nation on earth, and anyone who says we don't have a spending problem is living under a rock.
we do have a spending problem but here is the reality and that is politicians love to spend. I know how dare I let out the dirty little secret but the reality is there. We have politicians that love to waste tax dollars on military projects, or social welfare projects that can be handle by the state, or highway bills that are not needed like Bridges to Nowhere.
So as you kindly pointed out we have a spending problem. Now you wrote you would like a flat tax and that is all great if everyone paid into the system but the sad reality is that they do not. Illegals do not usually pay into the tax system except through the sale tax system and taxes on fuel and maybe land taxes but through work they usually do not.
So how do you get their tax money into the flat tax system?
Now before you write deport let live in reality and play nice and admit deporting them is not going to happen, so a tax system has to be made that will hit everyone equally and not a certain portion of the population.
Just my two cents.
I'm not going to play nice............E-VERIFY or you don't work here.........If companies want to sponsor them then they shall pay to play under the current rules of immigration here.............companies who violate it.............get fined and our jailed and end this nonsense..........
Is the term illegal not understood by you............and you are looking for a back door VAT out of this example..........
I'm not playing that game.
First off i am not looking for a damn thing so please do not even attempt that. As for E-Verify that is all great but there is ways around it like everything else. I could have someone use my ID's and get around the system so it is not as simple.
Also companies are not going to pay and you know this, and fining them is great but they will find ways around like I pointed out, so let be logical and admit illegals are part of this nation like it or not. it would be nice if our border was small and putting resources into immigration would work, but with two massive borders and two major oceans the reality illegals will enter one way or the other.
As I wrote I am fine with a flat tax if you can get everyone into the system but as it is now that is not the case and the best case is a sales tax while removing the income tax system and of course you disagree and I am not going to fight you on your disagreement.
Now excuse me but it is late where I am at, and I prefer to slap my dick up against a hot stove then carry on this conversation and bid you a peaceful and wonderful evening and thank you for the conversation...
