It needs to go and be replaced with a sales tax. Also BLM, ATF, TSA, and Homeland Security.
But it won’t happen if a RINO is elected president and if
Congress doesn’t vote out Boner and McConnell.
The more I think about it the more a national sales tax becomes a bad idea: for one, it will further cement the idea that the federal government can be involved in intrastate commerce; for another, given the ubiquitousness of computational machinery they could make the sales tax of varying rates dependent on who the person is or the income they make... they could store all the pertinent info in a chip and have it embedded into the right hand.
Why is the solution to a rotten mess, another rotten mess? DeathCare won’t get abolished, say the Whigs - “We’ll replace it with something better”. So, we abolish the IRS and impose a national sales tax. Huh, you’re still stealing my money.
This country got along just fine without an income tax for 125 years without an income tax (except for the illegal and unconstitutional tax imposed by the Great Invader Lincoln) and we can do just fine without one now.
