Yes, that's what voters are looking for as their next President: a cross between Joe Isuzu and Elmer Gantry who pushes open borders and “pay-to-play.”

You-nailed-it bump.

I just share JimRob's reservations about Cain's 9-9-9 .... becoming 20-20-20 and hello, VAT, to reload and rescrew the retirees and bring them all hobbling out of retirement, looking for work they can still do and getting paid 25 cents on the dollar for it, so they can pay their taxes and eat.

I think that's what the NWO and bankster types want. With all the screwing around with Social Security that's been going on, and "we've got to raise the retirement age" articles showing up in trained-monkey middlebrow opinion rags (like The Economist, which dedicated a whole issue to "back to work"), it really sounds "like a plan".

It's like a boss who won't give his hands time off to die. "You owe me! We've got work to do!"

You are right, the 9-9-9 plan is going to be ripped to shreds. Where I live my income tax will be I guess a flat 9 percent. I have no idea if all the deductions will stay the same. I have no idea if that includes SS and Medicare. If it does and they suppose to raise the SS and Med with the sales tax, that means my sales tax almost doubles in my state.

If this is a precursor to the fair tax, that means we will start giving out prebate checks to those under the poverty level. What a disaster that would be in 20 years.

I always think of tax plans or any plan, and what it would be like under Obama and that is the worst case scenario.

9-9-9 will sink Cain. Nice guy but bad plan.
