In other words, Daniels wants a flat (or at least flatter) tax system, which would raise more revenue with lower tax rates by eliminating special interest deductions and loopholes. Last time I checked, the flat tax is a conservative idea.
It's also a fact that the vast majority of special interest deductions in the tax code benefit upper income individuals and big corporations. That's something Steve Forbes has pointed out too.
Are you now going to call Steve Forbes a RINO as well?
You clearly cannot — or will not — understand my problems with Daniels— which speaks to how the “talk” is extremely important in a Democratic Republic in the information age. Actually, it is perhaps more important given the limitations a President has legislatively.
I am not alone. These are the same problems shard by millions of conservatives who like a number of things he has done. But since you refuse to acknowledge the importance of the arena of ideas and how Mitch has played into our opponent’s play book a number of times, I am done with this thread. Please make any future posts to the OP and not me.
FTR, I like the Flat Tax ideas of Forbes and I will vote for Daniels if he gets the nomination.
