Whatever?
Point 1: The socialist infrastructure in America depends on disbursing public funds to individuals on the basis of their situation in life rather than any goods or service they provide to the government.
Point 2: The only way to continue this system is for the government to maintain massive revenue sources.
Point 3: At present somewhere between 30% and 50% of Americans do not pay income tax, either directly or by rebate.
Point 4: The income tax only applies to the money an individual makes, and if that individual makes less, or his job goes overseas, the tax base shrinks even from even the 50% to 70% that do pay income taxes.
Point 5: The trend in Point 4 is accelerating.
Point 6: Also accelerating is the political strategy of promising more disbursements to get more votes, thereby establishing a system for self-perpetuating socialist programs.
Point 7: The NRST embeds the system in rebates to households.
Point 8: The NRST ties the perpetuation of the base of socialist programs, the social security system, to the amount of sales tax received with the caveat that the amount allocated to the SSS must remain constant, implicitly requiring that the sales tax base be increased if the amount falls below that constant.
Point 9: The NRST means more revenue for the Federal government, regardless of the increase or decrease of usable income available to individuals.
Pint 10: Points 1 through 9 are fact, obvious, and indisputable, refutable neither by out of context quotes from the Federalist Papers, off point court cases, or misinterpreted sayings from 18th and 19th century political analysts.
Personal problem? You're damn right I have a personal problem. It's called perpetuating a system guaranteed to fail, with me and mine, and the rest of America, in the middle of it.
