Yeah, that's it.
There are a half dozen nay-sayers here like you who are the truly enlightened and the rest of us are all blind and out for ourselves.
Large numbers alone do not make us right, but there has been hundreds, if not thousands, of discussions here and the 6 of you have failed to make your case. You project fears, protect narrow self interests, or argue for 'no tax' at all but you can't refute the truth.
I see it another way. There are a half dozen here who are huckstering a tax scheme that many I know believe will do more harm than good for some of the reasons discussed in this thread.
I realize it is your job to sell this scheme but no one is going to believe that there is only 6 lowly old American citizens out there who have serious concerns. No, you know some serious problems exist. Those problems must be very serious indeed if you are going to such extremes to stifle debate on them.
I have an idea! Why don’t you share with us the reasons given by legislators for not being able to get this tax scheme out of committee for the past 8 years and let’s have an honest and open national debate.
