So that's the little fraud behind magnum cum laude Rafael's plan to get a 10% flat tax. A VAT.
Seriously? I bet you haven't lived in a county with a VAT. We won't have Amero-style tax fraud any more. We will have Euro-fraud along with a Euro-bureaucracy that will look like some behemoth monster of the IRS and the European parliatment to collect it, and enforce it. Only it will be new, without a history of judicial review so the taxpayer will be completely unprotected while we spend the next 300 years sorting out any legal and judicial rights anyone has.
Anyone falling for this is STYUPID (British pronunciation).
What kind of an inside the Beltway troll is your man here. I know, some sort of I can write a supreme court brief weasel.
Ted promised to eliminate the IRS. What he did not tell us is he will create an even bigger bureaucracy in its place.
You step out of a ristorante in Italy and a tax guy might be lurking just outside the door to check your receipt -- it's almost Biblical. Or like the door "greeters" at Walmart who ask to see your receipt to check if you have stolen anything in the cart. Only it would be every store, everywhere, subject to receipt checking. It would require an army of government bouncers and you'd hardly be able to get through your errands in a day.
“Ted promised to eliminate the IRS. What he did not tell us is he will create an even bigger bureaucracy in its place.”
He’s pulling the same thing with education...his plan sounds more like Common Core and is a great danger to home schoolers...he slipped this one in when no one was looking.

On Oct. 26, 2015, The Blaze quoted Sen. Ted Cruz as saying, “School Choice Is Today’s ‘Civil Rights’ Issue.” But before you get excited about this, ask Sen. Ted Cruz what he means when he uses the term “choice.....If I had not read the sponsors of this bill I would think this legislation came right out of President Obama’s Equity Plan called For Each and Every Child: A STRATEGY FOR EDUCATION EQUITY AND EXCELLENCE.
