Anything you have to say from now on will be subject to the BS meter and will probalby fail. I used to respect you but that has long gone. Rob from Georgia indeed. I am groanup from Georgia and I have an open mind and an honest approach to these debates. You, sir, do not.
Easy to spot from day 1 of his FReepmail recruitment.
That started from the first question. I do have an honest approach to the debate, I did research the links, the links tell me that the wage earners and business owners will NOT be able to keep all of their current money 100% once the income taxes are removed. This is honest.
It is dishonest to say that everyone will get to keep 100% of their money, IMHO. I am saying that as a business owner, and if I were an employee I would recognize that my pay was likely going to take a hit.
And as I've said before, that might be an OK tradeoff for the current IRS and income tax. But we need to be honest about it because it is a major change and people need to be ready for the "less salary but no taxes means same takehome and same prices so I'm just good off as before" thinking.
To continue to delude all the wage earners in this country that you'll get 100% of your paychecks, plus prices will on average be the same, plus you'll get a monthly prebate is dishonest and pollyanish.
My first post on this subject recently said basically how can everyone win? who is paying for this and where does the money come from? I still have no answer to that question except I suspect that it is the business owner now who is expected to give up his 100% and pass along his income tax savings to the FedGov.
