We knew this all along, but it’s great to the an endorsement from Levin.

Not being a Trump fan, I admit I like most of his plan...EXCEPT for those who make $25,000 (single) or $50,000 (joint) pay NO taxes at all. They say that's about 50% of our working population. WTF?

Please explain to me why they should not pay their "fair share" for Fedgov services. Why should anyone be exempt from contributing to their own military defense? Granted, many agencies and some departments should be abolished, but some are beneficial to our lifestyle. Why shouldn't the above help pay since they also enjoy the rewards?

Not a fan of Romney, but looks like he got it right with his 47%.

The magic bullet of this plan is to cut the business rate to 15% - and not just corporate (Sub C) rate, but also the Sub S, LLC, rate to 15% from 39.6%. That’s the killer rate that destroys mom and pops up to pretty good size private companies. The removal of the AMT is the next best thing, followed by the death tax removal.

Those are the 3 killers of family businesses.

The down side is growing the population on non tax payers. Really stinky incentive there.

I dont agree with only 50% of the people paying taxes....we all need to share. Possibly a 2% national sales tax?

No plan that doesn’t reduce the size, scope and power of the IRS is worth a damn.

Levin said that, although he prefers both the flat and fair taxes, he thinks Trump’s plan is good overall.


Says it is good but prefers the flat or fair.

It helps abolish the IRS.

This is what Ted Cruz prefers as well.

Thanks for the endorsement Mark, we appreciate it.

Although Trump's proposal seems modest on its face, I suspect that easing-in more sensible tax laws will occur each year he's in office.

He does have to be elected President first.
