You’re a well known clown.

I don’t answer to you about what I believe in.

Not if the entire business tax structure is eliminated which is what Cruz’ plan does. Then if you tax at the beginning or the end it wouldn’t matter because the tax is set on the product to be paid by the company. One time only.

Again, it’s a European concept and I don’t agree with the idea of it which is why I think (hope) he’ll modify it to flat if he gets in.

No, I'm a well known poster of facts.

OTOH, you're not "known" here at all; however, you are now and what YOU are known as is not worth mentioning in mixed company.

Dude - don’t hurt your shoulder patting yourself on the back.

Second thought go ahead, no one else will do it.

... the tax is set on the product to be paid by the company. One time only.

You should re-read Sen. Cruz's tax proposal. "The tax will be based on revenues minus expenses such as equipment, computers, and other business investments."

That means that the tax gets paid at each step of the way as a product gets manufactured and moved to its ultimate retail sale, since each business along way pays 16% of their revenues minus their expenses to other businesses.

There is no cap, or minimum, so every self employed person providing a service would be paying 16% of their income on every dollar they earn. Once they get past the personal exemption they are paying at 26%. For many lower income self employed people they will actually pay more in taxes than they do now.

As you noted below, VATs are applied at every level of production or sales between different companies before we as end users get the total in our end when we purchase the final product like gasoline.

VATs are a progressive liberals wet dreams and real conservatives says hell no!

Below is your real world description of a VAT.

You should re-read Sen. Cruz’s tax proposal. “The tax will be based on revenues minus expenses such as equipment, computers, and other business investments.”

That means that the tax gets paid at each step of the way as a product gets manufactured and moved to its ultimate retail sale, since each business along way pays 16% of their revenues minus their expenses to other businesses.
