Part Duex

`(2) which enters into a cooperative agreement with the Secretary containing reasonable provisions governing the administration by such State of the taxes imposed by the subtitle and the remittance to the United States in a timely manner of taxes collected under this chapter.

There is one simple problem with that though, suppose the state legislature decides, we're going to put the issue to the vote of the people, in a referedum. And we're going to give them a choice between tax schedules to choose from (fed/state split)

And further, suppose that suddenly ads started popping up in said state, and they end up voting for the version that gives the Treasury Department 5%

What will Washington do then, if they try to bring the state in line, they'd be going against the will of the people.

Politics is all a matter of propaganda, whoever wins the propaganda war, and when it comes to issues of federal supremacy, the feds have never won a propaganda war in my state.

So just tell your state to cancel the federal income/paryoll tax system. Problem solved.

Nice fantasy, but empty.
