If he know so much about how the dems work, why would he push for a national sales tax on top of the income tax?
On it's face 9-9-9 sounds good but the reality it isn't a well thought out plan. Next thing you know they will exempt those at or below poverty level earnings from the income part of the tax or will lower it to almost nothing. Keep watching for it because it will come.
how do we win Florida when Obama will just tell the seniors living n SS, oh Cain will tax your food and medicine by 9% while cutting those millionaires on South Beach taxes by almost 30%.
This is about winning elections too ya know.
Cain would not try it without GOP majorities in both houses of Congress, to avoid perverting the plan. The 9% is “on top of” a much smaller income tax. The old, large income tax appears right now in the prices of goods and services.
If we require class warfare to win elections (or pandering to class warfare) then we have lost. Taxes on the rich are nothing but a ball and chain on the economy, our entrepreneurial class is strong enough to overcome them for now, but that won't last forever.
Where does it say in his plan theat presciption drug’s and food will be taxed? Most states have those as tax exempt.
