"How can you be sure sales tax won’t become VAT?.."

That worries me! Although Cain wouldn't do it a Democrat would jump on it.

How about when 100% are paying the tax as opposed to just we 53% currently, the Resist We Much movement will be a lot stronger.

Do you think we ever would have accumulated a $14 trillion debt and $120 trillion in unfunded liabilities if during all these years *everyone* -- even the poor -- had to pay at least some federal income tax?

No way. With skin in the game, even the poorest, most uneducated taxpayer would ask, But will this awesome new federal government program mean I'll have to pay more in taxes?
