Hmmm...

Illegals and "under-the-table" workers will now pay tax
Tax is on consumption (Constitutional) not income (unconstitutional)
IRS can be eliminated, or extremely downsized
Foreign tourists would also pay tax

Hate to break the news to you, champ, but a consumption tax paid by illegals, dope dealers and foreign tourists anin't gonna mean diddly in light of the huge recession that this bomb would start.

In the meantime, though, i'd suggest buying stock in companies that had large retail establishments on the Canadian and Mexican sides of the border.

I'd also suggest buying up pesos, since the dollar would become next to worthless.

...and I guess I should have continued reading because it looks like that angle has been addressed! I'm so damn impatient.
