What if your brillant logic about the repeal of t e 16th amendment is flawed.
Lest assume that the republicans do get a super majority and pass the repeal, but then it get's bogged down during ratification, Rat legislators in NY, CA, OR, WA, MA, CT, RI, NJ, MD, DE, IL, HI, VT and ME don't ratify. Then a rat president is elected in 2012. There is a budget crisis and the solution is to raise the sales tas OR...... Reinstste an Income tax for incomes of over $1,000,000, after all the rich need to pay their fair share...... you know the rest.
Besides, half the RINO in the senate wouldn't vote to get rid of the 16th amendment.
BTW Don't you think the rat co sponsor's of HR2525 KNOW that the repeal of the 16th amendment is a bait and switch??????
WHY ELSE WOULD THEY WANT TO DO THIS?????
Trust me Socialist have NO INTEREST in doing that will reduce the ower of the goverment or reduce it's size.
The NRST supporters on this board are extremely well intentioned but equally naive.
"The Road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
A 17% flat tax (Forbes version) while not as good as a NRST in the ideal world is much better than the current situation, After a couple of years with this system then Go With a Constitutional Amendment which repeals the 16th amendment and Replaces the Income Tax with a NRST.

Why screw around with a Forbes/Armey/Shelby "Flat(Income)Tax" for a couple of years? Have a look at this website... Dick Armey Sez
Here's the answer!!! FairTax Facts!
