Doesn’t the Fair Tax proposal use state agencies to collect a national sales tax along with the state sales tax and remit the proceeds to Washington?
Congress should defund the mookabookers.
Course they won’t cause they got no balls.
Told you I did, More good looking Yoda is. Wiser too.
Or dumpster diving.
Quite frankly, he has nothing to fear from the congress. First off, he knows the congress is nothing but hot air and political theater. All bark and no bite. He may as well have given them the finger. Congress will still do nothing to him. Second, congress is part of the money collecting system so they are in this with him. Congress wants to appear as outsiders but in reality they are the ultimate revenue collectors who depend on the IRS. And third, congress is controlled by special interests who support the complexity of the tax code. Ain’t nothing gonna change.
The system is what it is. And the arrogance will continue.
In dealing with the IRS, you are guilty until proven innocent. Instead of innocent until proven guilty of some infraction.
We all want everyone to pay their taxes. But some stories about the IRS and their actions during audits is enough to make you think there is no due process when dealing with them.
To wit: The Chewbacca Defense.
Put them in jail and make it Felon Revenue Service, FRS.
Dayum, what a pompous ass.
The Supreme Court has clarified that Congess cannot lay taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially only for things that it can justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
But the corrupt Senate elected by low-information voters has scandalously failed to kill a bunch of House appropriations bills (1.7.1) that the House cannot justify under Congress’s Section 8 powers.
The 17th Amendment needs to go.
Congress lets everyone dish them. I hate to say it they deserve it.
An alternative would be to rid the Bureau of all GS 14 and above.
Haggling over the disposition would be counter productive, just get rid of them
So much for the ridiculous lie ‘public servant’.
” Repeal the 16th Amendment and go back to having the Sovereign States pay their membership dues in the Union. “
Well, there are at least 2 of us that see the merit here : )
The troglodytes over at Politico are having spasms over the put down of Ted related to his comment of doing away with the IRS.
Retards.
You mean follow the constitution?
