RE “I make a lot less than $100K and I live in CA. From what I read Cain’s 999 plan will raise my taxes. Why would I vote for someone who would raise my taxes

Maybe there is more to life than your short term gain.

I didnt get a tax credit from the Bush-Pelosi stimulus that mostly went to the 47% that pay NO federal income taxes. I also was punished with the Obama/Pelosi ‘Making Work Pay’ tax credit for working full time which mainly went to that 47% , I am one of the 53% that has to pay those taxes. There is a target on my head,

"We Are the 53%" website

It's called a flat tax.

I don’t think you should pay that much tax either. I think your short term, long term GAIN would be a good thing as well as mine. I don’t want my taxes raised as well as yours. There is so much waste with our taxes.

The corporate sales tax rate would plummet from 39% to 9% with some most going to lower consumer prices which would cause people to spend, especially once their paychecks are taxed at the same 9%

The economy would explode overnight and the economy might overheat.

Corporations would also have more money to put into R&D, creating future products that would give you more bang for the buck.

The 9% sales tax, which has already been implemented in many states would stay the same.

Not 100% of people would immediately benefit from the 9-9-9 plan, but everyone would eventually benefit from the 9-9-9 plan.

I also imagine that those over 65 would be exempt from paying the 9% sales tax.

If not, they should.
