Sorry, couldn’t find it on his website;
“Who will pay more? The people who spend more money on new goods,” Cain insisted. “The sales tax only applies to people who buy new goods, not used goods. That’s a big difference.”
And that's the problem - there is no place on his website that says you only pay sales tax on new goods.
Believe it or not I like Cain as much as you do, but I like the truth more. Think about it - he has changed his mind about several things in the last few days. A 9% sales tax on the purchase of a house is a significant expense, so don't you think he would have put on his website used home sales are exempt.
We both like Cain but let's not cover up the truth. Let's hope he finds a way to stop backing off his statements and just admits when he is wrong.
