That’s not the problem. The problem is THEY WILL NEVER STOP THE INCOME TAX.
So you will just get an additional tax. End of story.
can you add and subract?
This is why we need to send as many REAL conservatives to Congress a is humanly, maybe SUPERhumanly, possible.
Which is an abrusd complaint.
Congress can simply raise the existing tax rates any time they want. Changing over to a more broad based tax in exchange for eliminating all the current corrupt gimmicks, loopholes and double taxation in the current code is something anything thinking Conservative should before.
This “new tax” attack line is a total lie. There is no new tax, there is simply a replacement for existing taxes.

You're being a bit of a cynic aren't you?
After all, there has been several times where taxes have been rescinded!
Oh, wait a minute, maybe not....
As a matter of fact I am still waiting for the temporary sales tax to pay for building the sports dome in Minneapolis to be rescinded from about 25 years ago and they are already looking to build another sports dome.
Nope, you are right, once a tax is there it is ALWAYS there!
The name may change, the amounts may be shifted around, but they are ALWAYS there.
“So you will just get an additional tax. End of story.”
That’s most certainly not the end of the story. Naturally Cain won’t sell it this way, but one of the big benefits of an additional tax is that it’ll be regressive and fall on the shoulders of people who currently have no income tax liability. Then it wouldn’t be just Fat Cats revolting against taxes. It’d put a dent in the tired “for the rich” counterargument.
