Went to school with Sabato, Jr. High or High School don’t recall exactly, maybe both. He was an OK fellow at the time. I wouldn’t worry too much about his positions. Even if he was able to get something through the Convention of States, it would still have to be ratified. And I for one don’t want to see expresidents or any other government operative do anything but go away and shut up. I doubt I am alone in that. So, I am not a bit worried about his suggestions. I want to eliminate the ability of the congress to tax at all. This includes repeal of the sixteenth amendment, eliminanation of all forms of taxation nation wide, imposition of a national sales tax at a rate of 15% or so. States will be able to impose a state sales tax to fund their governments but that is all. No other forms of taxation allowed. Some may call that a radical position. But I don’t. Regardless, my proposal would have to be approved by the CoS and ratified by the states. Same as any other proposal. There is plenty of protection against any run away proposals or the somewhat silly proposals of Mr. Sabato. I am not a. It fearful of any CoS.
