The politicians would have cover for creating more government by proclaiming tax enforcement is required that has the potential to be far worse than the present IRS,

How so? THe nrst only has business as filers - no individuals are filers. So how will it be worse if no individuals are tax filers? Besides, doesn't today's system already create cover for creating more gov't for tax enforcement? Hence your argument is not against any particular tax method, but is against gov't getting larger to enforce taxes. But since only business will face enforcment, not individuals, how will it be worse? Seems to me that by reducing the nuber of filers so drastically will make enforcement easier, not harder. Beyond that, no individuals will file - only business.

...every American who does not desire to be taxed excessively will be forced to beg an offsetting sum of money from government, they could simply manipulate prices when they wanted more money, etc.

I'm not sure what you're saying here. Can you clarify?

In a way, yes that is correct. Any major change in the tax law will be seen by those who own and operate political processes as an oportunity to not only devise a method of easily increasing taxes but also a way to make compliance more absolute.

I'm saying I do not understand why some tax scheme transfers money, accumulated by government, back to Americans to pay their tax. I'm saying that any tax scheme that gives government an opportunity to manipulate the price (which we all know thay can do) of such things as food, energy and medicines and get $.30 cents for each dollar increase to purchase more socialist type political capital is certain to be exploited.

Eskie loves to speak and roll around in gibberish as you'll notice.
