A national sales tax on top of state sales taxes is just never going to sell, IMO.

It may well be a failure if supposed conservatives can't grasp the fact that the ENTIRE tax code will be thrown out in favor of 999 plan. What part of this is so hard to understand?

With some states having high state sales taxes, i agree.

However, part of 999 is the assumption that the states that have high rates do something different, too.

States are easier to steer than federal governments. Each state can do what makes sense for them (economically).

Imagine that, returning to a real republic.
