Try actually READING what Cain said, not just put your own emotion based spin on it. 9-9-9 replaces, it does not add to, the existing tax code.
Wrong! Herman Cain proposes to keep taxes on corporate profits and gain alive, keep taxes on “incomes” alive which includes taxes on the wages working people earn, and on top of all this he proposes a new tax, a national retail sales tax which would tax the food a mother buys to feed her child, taxes the clothing she purchases to cloth that child, taxes the fuel used to heat that child’s room during winter months, taxes the medicine a mother needs to care for a sickly child, and then our beloved Herman Cain would tax the coffin used to bury her child because she simply could not afford his national sales tax on every imaginable necessity of life in addition to Mr. Cain taxing the bread she earns when selling the property she has in her labor! Of course, if she lives in one of Herman Cain’s privileged “opportunity zones”, she gets a free ride!

“...taxes the medicine a mother needs to care for a sickly child, and then our beloved Herman Cain would tax the coffin used to bury her child because she simply could not afford his national sales tax on every imaginable necessity of life...”
I’m picturing Herman Cain twirling his mustache whilst tying the poor woman’s older daughter to the railroad tracks!
Woo-hoo! I can hardly wait til the next installment.
