Cain is a long time friend of neal boortz, they worked together, his plan is what it is because Neals plan is copyrighted. Cains plan is Neals plan, he just cannot say so and unlike johnny come lately perry, Cain and Neal have talked about tax plans for years. The main thing Cain stepped forward trying to cut the size of government, while the two little rinos, Perry and Willard, played dry hump. Their act last night was kinder-garden.
I’m confused by your claim — why is it that Cain couldn’t say “If I’m elected, I’ll implement Neal Boortz’s copyrighted tax plan”? Is Neal holding his plan hostage for royalties or something? Is it actually a violation of a copyright for government to implement Neal’s plan?
Or are you saying that Cain couldn’t take credit for a plan if it had Neal’s name on it, so Cain had to come up with his own named plan?
And anyway, Cain has said he wants Fairtax, but that he didn’t think that would be poltiically popular, so he picked 9-9-9 because it WOULD be politically popular. Once he gets elected on 9-9-9 and implements it, he wants to then get rid of 9-9-9 and implement the Fairtax.
Is Fairtax the Boortz plan? Because 9-9-9 isn’t much like Fairtax.
Also, if 9-9-9 is Neal’s plan, why does Cain keep saying Richard Lowrie is the primary author of the plan?
And why, if it is Neal’s plan, do news reports keep saying that Arthur Laffer helped design the plan, along with Stephen Moore?
So now the 9-9-9 plan is co-owned by Boortz, Laffer, Moore, AND Lowrie?
And how does a new tax plan which is revenue neutral help “cut the size of government”?
Cain is just a TALKER. He has no record of governing to judge him with, he has not enacted a single policy to judge him with, he has not voted on a single issue to judge him. His record is one of RHETORIC and TALK and guess what TALK is cheap, very cheap.
