Bigun says: "The problem with that is that 99%+ could not give 1 hoot in hell about micro, macro, or any other theory! What they know is that the income tax is HIGHLY intrusive into their private affairs and HIGHLY unfair to those who earn legitimate incomes.

You respond: " Ignorance can never help. Ignoring medical science can leave you dead. Ignoring science will destroy technology. Ignoring Economic Principles will also produce miscarriages.

I am ignorant of automobile mechanics but I don't rant and rail against those who have studied to learn how to fix cars. To do that regarding Economics is equally unwise.

The simple unavoidable fact is that taxes will ALWAYS be paid by those with incomes. And almost always those with higher incomes will pay higher taxes. This is true of EVERY tax system known to man.

I may be ignorant but I'm NOT disingenious as you certianly are and I'll just bet you that others will be able to spot the disingeniousness as well! I'm on to you my friend!

I don't know why this poster insists that his book model must be gospel truth.

It is plain as the nose on my face that I pay my busines income taxes from my sales proceeds and it is just as clear that I raise my price to cover that cost, as do all of my competitors.

To assert that the income tax is not a cost to me is simply preosterous.

Go ahead and proclaim the Virtue of Ignorance all you want but until FT proposers can deal with even basic economic theory in a credible way it will not be a serious effort to those who reject Ignorance.

And the Auto Mechanics will continue to do my repairs.
