To: Your Nightmare

Ok, then we will just keep the crappy system we have now!/sar.
I am for bringing back the tarrifs that used to support us before we stupidly bought into the income tax. I am willing to try anything, including the fair tax, as long as it is not another income tax. Flat taxes are out as far as I am concerned, it will quickly degenerate into the income tax system we have now.

Anything? How about the Colon Tax? With the Colon Tax, the government taxes you on the length of your colon. Once a year, the government sends someone to your house and he shoves his arm up your rectum to see how long your colon is.

Point: it can always get worse. (And the FairTax is.)

Income taxes only account for about 35% of federal revenues. They rake in over $1,300,000,000,000 (trillion with a T) without income taxes. I think they can get by on that.
