What sales will be taxed?

Wholesale sales?
Retail sales?
Stocks and bonds?
Services?

This is just as corruptable as what we have now.

What we really need is a new system of law. There are too many laws to be applied fairly.

Proposal: For every new word of law created, two words of law must be destroyed, and for every word of law changed, one must be destroyed. The eventual result? No need for lawyers!

It's all right here and in very few words compared to the current IRS code, and in coded form will probably be much less than the current code & regulations...

Did You Know?

By the Numbers:

There are approximately 700 separate sections of the Tax Code that apply to individuals. There are over 1,500 separate provisions that apply to businesses. As of May 2000, before passage of the last two tax bills, the Tax Code contained 1,395,028 words – nearly 319 times the number of words in the Constitution. IRS Regulations contain over 8,551,444 words – over 11 times the number of words in the King James Bible. The IRS produces 649 separate forms, schedules, and instructions with approximately 16,100 lines. Publications providing guidance to taxpayers alone total about 13,400 pages.
