I would think a sales tax for all people plus an income tax for those with assets over 1 billion dollars or income over 100 million would be workable.

When the income tax was first started in this country, it was sold on the basis of only affecting "the rich".
So do you want to repeat that history, with a huge Federal sales tax on top of it?
Class warfare rhetoric is class warfare rhetoric, no matter how mild. Conservatives should avoid using it.
