5 dollars is "about" the same as 5 million, hard to prove lier's wrong...lol
The Fairy tax is a joke on anyone stupid enough to vote for it.
If someone makes 200k or more, AND owns a business where they can write everything off, its a good deal.
Homeless persons would make out pretty good also, everyone else takes it in the ash.

A consumption tax taxes spending, not income. What you earn and save remains untaxed. You do take home a bigger paycheck since NONE of your money is withheld by the government. The government only receives the money when you spend it.
