The only way to address this is an amendment to the US Constitution ending the income tax. Time and tax creep, NN. They are both facts of life.

No need for you to actually let facts get in the way of your rants. Cain also addressed superseding the 16th amendment.

You are acting like a sniveling Ronulan.

Sorry but you cannot do that. You must bridge from one tax to the other. You cannot abolish the current system with nothing to replace it.

Again, answer the question.

Why are you so afraid of the 9-9-9 plan and not of Congress simply raising existing tax rates?

This argument that because no system of taxation will be utterly perfect we must cling to our current corrupt failed income tax system is nonsense.

No replacement system will be perfect. There will be flaws in any replacement

No, that's just an argument for doing nothing. You can institute a sales tax and repeal the income tax in the same legislation. Then in order to reinstate an income tax, you would have to pass it in Congress, and have the President sign it. Tax rates can be changed as a simple ammendment to the budget, which can't be filibusted.
