i agree. eliminate that control and you have an economic boom. That’s why it is a tea party. glass tax, tea tax, etc.

Shut down the Democrat money laundering mechanisms (union dues being recycled into DNC coffers, liberal special interests that receive tax money that finds its way back to liberal politicians, etc). Also clean out Department of State and pick someone as AG who would be ruthless in going after Dem politicians who have been acting criminally in office.

Why shouldn’t the IRS be abolished?

Rename the Department of Interior since they only deal with things outdoors.

Ted Cruz is right on track.

It is time we “Domestic terrorists” lined up behind him and forsake all others. Total annihilation of the rest of the field. Forget they even exist.

No abolishing the IRS is not going to happen nor should it.

Bullsquat! The IRS can be abolished and replaced by a few federal maggot employees from Treasury charged with making sure the states send in their portion of the national sales tax on a quarterly basis.

Computers could enable weekly or daily deposits, but I want the states to have the power to halt payments whenever the feds engage in the kind of faggotry that brings harm to the state in question.

I’ve met a number of H&R Block people who would love a flat tax.

But there is no danger of it ever happening. Congress won’t give up the power. Heck, my GOP Senator from Arizona (McFlake) just voted to approve Obama’s AG pick.

I don’t want Cruz to make nonsensical, will never happen goals. I’d be happy if he could just get minimal conservative goals - such as defeat Obama’s AG pick. If we cannot manage that, why pretend anything else will happen?

For the time being Cruz and Walker are showing the best possibilities for shaking things up.

The question regarding their success or failure is... will the RINOs work against them?

5.Defund the left.

You could only accomplish this if you abolish the IRS.

Same could probably be said for you other 5 points.

“Youth outreach... LOL!”

That was a great answer and one that probably made Shillary grind her teeth.

I agree that a revenue raising arm of the Federal Govt will always be with us but that's not a reason not to abolish the Income Tax. In my view we should also get rid of any tax that discourages employers from hiring US citizens, such as FICA and Obamacare. Roll those Revenue streams into a national Sales tax/ V.A.T.

Far and away the best conservative choice. Not even close.
