Yep, at the grocery store when you are spending money you have already earned, at the time you elect to spend it.

Nail in the coffin. You have fully convinced me.

Since when does it take two parties to conspire as regards an income tax. Just takes one deciding to not report receipts from cash when dealing with individuals only there is no reporting by your "employers"(i.e. customers) of how much they paid your or even that business occurred.

I was refering to the fact that my employer records and reports what they paid me. They have to by law. Hence the conspiracy between myself and my employer in order to "get away" with it. (see "under the table" employment for my point)

Not quite true, as only those persons who chose to engage in retail business are subject to collecting and remitting the tax, and they are paid to do that job by the feds. All others don't have anything to do with it.

The burden falls to the retailers as opposed to the producers. I understood that but didn't articulate it.

Like I said. I'm convinced. Most of my counterpoints were educational in nature. You teaching me. Thank you.

Now to drum up support since I've got all this new intelectual ammunition to let loose down range.

Here's hoping that this can be implemented.

I've barely touched the edges in this thread.
