>>> I like that Cain is putting forth an idea - BUT - how about focusing on cutting government rather than some new creative way to forcibly take money from the people. >>>

Wow, walk and chew gum at the same time? Cain has a plan for cutting government. It’s a good plan, like some of the others. But that’s a different issue.

And this plan replaces the most “creative way to forcibly take money from people” ever known to man, our current IRS code.

Wow, walk and chew gum at the same time? Cain has a plan for cutting government. It’s a good plan, like some of the others. But that’s a different issue.

According to his website, his "plan" for cutting spending is little more than political-speak. No mention of actual details unlike his tax plan.

And this plan replaces the most “creative way to forcibly take money from people” ever known to man, our current IRS code.

I'm not arguing the merits of his 999 plan. I am saying that I believe his priorities are flipped. Our problem is not the tax system, as convoluted as it may be. Our problem is out of control spending.
