I'm sorry but if you refuse to learn the facts about the current Tax system, there is no way anyone can make you learn them. I'm not sure what the problem is. I agree with you. Regardless of what tax structure you operate under or what the rates are or what governmental entity is doing the taxing, it's a cost to doing business. Business will pass those costs on to the consumer. I don't have a problem understanding that. But all that aside, Cain's income tax and his sales tax will likely more than double the taxes the majority of people pay. That is simple math and based on a comparison between what people pay now and what they pay under the Cain scheme. So I'm not sure what the point is you're trying to make.

I believe the theory is that Congress implements a national sales tax and then, at some future point, the 16th Amendment gets repealed so that income taxes are no longer collected. Obviously, you have to hope that some future Congress doesn't decide that they like the income and national sales taxes, so why not keep both.
