I love the way people get so outraged by the 23% tax.. (which,BTW, is really a 30% tax)... yet, no one seems to be equally outraged at the SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY being taken from us in the form of confiscatory income taxes.
People seem to think we can live in a country where ONLY rich people pay taxes. We’re almost there.... and, we’re almost broke.

Its human nature. People want to tax only the rich. What they don't see is to get the kind of government we have today, they will have to pay a revenue-true sales tax. I think that would be a good thing since if we don't want to pay 23%, perhaps its time to ask ourselves if we want to have that much government. If its not worth it, then we need to seriously reduce the effective Fair Tax rate.
