However, and this is why all the “it will hurt the poor” arguments begin to crumble...

Anyone who looks at the numbers can see that Cain's plan is a significant tax increase for over half the population.

...as the price of goods and services significantly drops DUE TO THE REDUCTION IN CORPORATE TAXES.

And if you honestly believe that would happen then you're being naive.

Right. No business would want to price their product competitively if a reduction in their costs gave them the leeway to do so. What was I thinking?

Very true; the half that pay NOTHING right now.

Call it a gimmick or whatever, Cain is a mathematician by trade and is much smarter than most people when it comes to numbers.

And he is 100% correct when he says there are a lot of stupid people in this country. Most people form opinions based on one bit of information or one sound bite without ever reading anything in it's entirety.

Y'all can stick up for the status quo on the IRS till you are blue in the face. I will vote for ANY candidate who swears to get rid of them.
