Meaning they actually have to pay taxes, instead of having taxes paid to them.

Cain on the Hannity show:

“If you’re poor, blame yourself”

I love this guy.

Exactly! Everyone would have to pay something. If the "filthy" rich had to pay 9% on just their earnings,they would be about like now. They put everything under foundations, companies,--their apartments for vacations, vehicles, etc.

The present strain falls mainly on middle and upper middle class. This is the Wa-Po, giving sustenance to the Dems as usual.

Even their goofball professors of economics haven't done anything outside academia, and most of the economic gurus use the PFA theory--Plucked From Air.

The only country where i read state health care was working was Austria. At that time they had about 9-10 million people, and the reason it worked was that EVERYBODY, even those on unemployment had to pay something for their health care. That is probably the reason Arnold liked Obamacare. He and others don't understand that administering health care for 10 mil is a tad different from administering for over 300 mil.

Only imagine if a Repub comes up with a plan (Cain) that would actually make everyone responsible for the govt. goodies they get. You could hear the P-witch howling without aid of TV.

With all due respect about the poor:

My sister and I were both pushed to achieve economic success. I made it, she became mentally disabled. It’s not aways their fault.

I do not favor his plan without a constitutional amendment, but you have it right. One of the pluses is that so called poor would have “skin in the game.” Many of them do not now.

Of course the Dims will not easily give up a constituency for more government.
