...but can’t vote for it because she believes Congress would just add it to the current income tax system.

Which is why it would would have to be a constitutional amendment which does ALL of the following:

1. Repeals 16th amendment which explicitly gave Congress the authority to levy an income tax; AND
2. Explicitly repeals all taxes currenly in force, including gasoline, FCC excise taxes, etc.; AND
3. Explicitly prohibits Congress from levying ANY tax except for a sales tax; AND
4. Establishes a MAXIMUM amount for the sales tax; AND
5. Establishes that NO ONE shall be exempt from paying the sales tax.

The political process could then quibble over what percentage the tax would be, as long as it's less than or equal to the maximum allowed by the amendment, and which items would be subject to the sales tax.

Now THAT would be truth in taxation. All Americans would then be able to know EXACTLY how much of their money is being given to the federal government.

To quote (or paraphrase) Robert Kennedy... "Some people look at what what is and ask "Why?" I look at what could be and ask "Why not?"

the politicians would promise more and more prebate.

the lobbyiests would still petition for more and more favored tax and prebate positions.

the final law does not have to repeal the 16th amendment, nice try.

it does nothing to limit the fees and sales taxes of the states.

this is the biggest scam and is just a means to sell t-shirts by some hole in the wall office in texas.
