>> Learn the difference.

Hey, thanks for the pedantic lecture, but we *know* the difference.

On the other hand, I give Cain’s national sales tax about “9” months to MORPH into a VAT. Call it the fourth “9” if you like.

Putting another revenue stream in the hands of our politicians is a really DUMB idea.

CUT THE SPENDING! IT’S THE SPENDING, STUPID!

Oh, and also the damn regulations. They are the real growth killers. Funny how Cain doesn’t push that, also. Just “999”.

Pointing out that there are differences between a VAT and a sales tax is far from pedantic. It is neither splitting hairs nor a minute detail. I will give you credit for breaking out the thesaurus.

It is apparent that so many are fixated upon the 9-9-9 plan and not the complete message of Cain. We all, as well as Cain, are well aware that spending must be reduced significantly. The fact that spending must be reduced is axiomatic. Cain has laid out spending cuts as well as needed regulatory eliminations, beginning with the EPA and Dept. of Education. If you weren't prepossessed with the 9-9-9 plan maybe the totality of Cain's message would reach your ears.

Did you miss the point where the 999 plan REPLACES the current income tax?

That means you don;t pay the 15% FICA OR federal taxes.

and no ‘pre-bate’. I though tthe ‘prebate’ was the most horrifying thing about the so-called ‘fair tax’ if it is $3500 this year, i guarntee every semocrap will be running on a platform to make it $4500. then more, then more

Then they will need a 100% tax to pay for the prebate, and their communist takover is done
