I know this. I also know he wants to eliminate the income tax.
I've heard people making that point - that the real purpose of this proposal is to eliminate the income tax altogether (and presumably replace it with a sales tax). I guess the full plan has a schedule something like this:
2004 - Keyes wins election promising African-American's reparations by exempting them from the income tax for two generations.
2005 - Keyes convinces the Congress to grant reparations to African-Americans by exempting them from the income tax for two generations.
2006 - Keyes convinces the Congress to eliminate the income tax for everyone and to replace it with a sales tax.
Now, at that point, do you suppose that African-Americans might wonder what happened to their reparations?
