So you do believe that it is a good thing that today people can avoid taxes by illegally parking their money in offshore accounts to evade their taxes?
In other worlds you support tax evasion as a rightous act?
Okay, given that, I can certainly see why you'd object to this idea.
Spending your money would still be legal.
You just couldn't park it offshore to avoid that tax. Just as you theoretically cannot park money offshore NOW to avoid taxes.
Nothing in that plan gives the government the right to tell you how you
spend your money.
That would be perfectly okay under the plan. I expect most people would do that, actually. But that would be okay.
No, that would not be okay. That would be you attempting to avoid taxation. That would have to be thought of as inheritance tax evasion.
I worked too hard for it to give it all away to the government. Ed, if you have a bad idea...just accept it...it's a bad idea.
It's a plan that will never happen, I'll readily acknowledge that.
It's a plan that has huge flaws, I'll admit that, too.
For one thing, it would end up nearly as complex and invasive of our right to privacy as our current plan, since the whole "giving it all away" thing couldn't be allowed, either.
But what we have NOW is a
bad plan.
The FLAT tax is a
bad plan.
The VAT tax is a
bad plan.
But it's AS FAIR (if not more fair) as any plan any of us have to offer.
And it certainly does one thing...
it lampoons the the lie that the scions of this nation aren't EXPECTING to start out with advantages that give them intergenerational domination of our society.
And it ALSO lampoons their complain that taxation that it is unfair to the rich, too.
Remember
nobody has to pay taxes in their lifetimes under THIS plan, and isn't that what the wealthy (and wealthy wannbes) bitch about? The injustice that they have to pay more taxes than the poor?
Well, in
this plan, they don't have to pay ANY taxes whatever.
And still they whine and bitch about it, don't they?
And that's why we know that they are lying about why they object to our current system of taxation.
Their objection isn't about fairness...nothing about our economy is based on fairness. Their objection is paying
ANYTHING AT ALL!
Look how the piggies squeal, when somebody suggests that their children might have to start our with the same inheritence benefits as everyone else.
Are they afraid their kids cannot compete with the rest of us on a level playing field?
God damned right they are.
Because they know perfectly well that that inherited wealth gives their kids huge advantages
which disadvantage the rest of us in a CAPITALIST system.
It cracks me up that the asskissers to the rich want to talk about fairness to us.
They aren't interested in fairness...
that's obvious.
Their interested is really in keeping things unfairly set up to advantage WELATH, And in a CAPITALIST system,
money is THE advantage.
AS the editecian 100% inheritance tax plan proves, fairness has NOTHING to do with their complaints about our current system.
They're bitching about paying taxes.
Because every time I drag it out, it's the people who bitch the most about the injustice of our current tax system who MOST object to the FAIREST TAXATION SYSTEM
ever devised --a system which would LIBERATE THEM of taxation for their
entire lifetimes.
So I bring out this system occassional just to prove what lying sacks of shit the wealthy and wealthy wannabes (aka tools ) who bitch about our current
progressive taxation.
It just shows us what liars these people are when they talk about
fairness.
