I have tried hard to pick this “plan” apart. Other than the total lack of a chance of passing... the ONLY real concern I have is that, as others have posted, what happens if the DEMS regain all three branches of government? What stops them from jacking tax rates? Nothing short of some form of constitutional restraint (not that the Constitution means anything to the current batch of leftists).

It still requires a 2/3 majority to increase the rate. Something they are unlikely to get even with a handful of RINO’s on the GOP side.

Because Cain will have made Democrat voters into TAXPAYERS, and they will vote their pocket books against raising the rates on the taxes they feel every time they shop.

Either Democrats will never get control, or will start running on “won’t increase taxes” platforms.
