A Taxreform bump for you all.

If you would like to be added to this ping list let me know.

John Linder in the House(HR25) & Saxby Chambliss Senate(S25), offer a comprehensive bill to kill all income and SS/Medicare payroll taxes outright, and provide a IRS free replacement in the form of a retail sales tax:

H.R.25,S.25
A bill to promote freedom, fairness, and economic opportunity by repealing the income tax and other taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service, and enacting a national retail sales tax to be administered primarily by the States.

Refer for additional information:

I look forward to absorbing the final dispositions from this panel.

Seems they favor nrst individuals or nrst on individuals/business.

That's fine, cuz it will be obvious that the latter is just hiding taxes in prices. They'll get over that - that's part of the reason we want reform....

Put me on that ping if you can. I want te hear about those type of bills. Gives me a reason to smile, ha.

I would be a bigger fan of the sales tax if it is run by the states who then send a big check to the feds. That would short circut the micro managers in high places that I mentioned previously and most importantly... give the states some of there original powers back.

No more coersion by the feds when they threaten to pull federal funds for state failure to comply with some new law. The state could turn right around and "withold" state funds from the feds. What a beautiful stale mate that would be.

Feds will never let the states run it to that degree though. it will be ultra controlled commerce under the federal thumb when they are done. And we can all get ready to sign up for the "mark" in order to legaly do business.
