[George Frm Br00klyn Park]

Z, When you leave your vision of libertarian utopia, I might understand your reasoning and writing. When most people are "given" incentives to do as you say business will do, most generally those businesses will collectively raise their prices and tell consumers, "You are getting a good deal. We didn't have to raise prices to you." A prime example is the medical field when medicare and insurance paid "costs". The same thing with our steel industries. The same thing with shipbuilding. Those who did lower their prices, were not able to invest in their businesses, and soon became un-competitive, lost customers, and finally the business itself. Human nature hasn't reached your level of understanding just yet. Social engineering to achieve that have been abject failures, and will be for the unforseeable future, including the social engineering so proudly written of by the proponents of the NRST.

What have you to say to the comparisons between the differences people will pay between the NRST, and the FIT {Flat Income Tax} I have written. Do you really think that the "benefits" of lower prices will make it so that as Taxman writes, "The rich will get richer, and the poor will get richer." I don't believe that for a New York second. Peace and love, George..

Z, When you leave your vision of libertarian utopia, I might understand your reasoning and writing.

I'm not a libertarian. My foundation is fully integrated honesty.

When most people are "given" incentives to do as you say business will do, most generally those businesses will collectively raise their prices and tell consumers, "You are getting a good deal. We didn't have to raise prices to you."

You're a real hoot. You claim that when all the business making the same generic product all get a 25% cost reduction that they'll chose to collectively raise their prices rather than competitively lower them. Free competition is about the furthest thing from collectivism. You really are a hoot!

A prime example is the medical field when medicare and insurance paid "costs". The same thing with our steel industries. The same thing with shipbuilding. Those who did lower their prices, were not able to invest in their businesses, and soon became un-competitive, lost customers, and finally the business itself.

For the third time, all companies making the same generic product will see a 25% cost reduction. The playing field is just as level after the NRST goes into effect as was prior to it being implemmented.

Human nature hasn't reached your level of understanding just yet.

You are but one lone human example that has demonstrated the lack of understanding. That is, if not as I suspect, you are merely feigning the inability to not comprehend.

 Social engineering to achieve that have been abject failures, and will be for the unforseeable future, including the social engineering so proudly written of by the proponents of the NRST.

The flat income tax and the graduated income tax have their roots in the second plank of the communist manifesto. The NRST has it's roots in taxing each person's purchases at the same rate -- equality.
