I think that this is a rather poorly argued article.

Secretary Snow, who likes to snow people,

Any Article that includes lines like this cannot be treated seriously.

The proposed legislation will, instead, change the entire tax code of America from a tax on income to a tax on consumption over a 10-year period.

Which proposed legislation is that? All Bush is asking for is an extremely small tax cut, with an end to double taxation on dividends.

At the heart of this plan is the elimination of tax on corporate dividends

Actually Joan, the goal is to end the Double taxation on dividends. Someone will still have to pay taxes on any profits earned by dividends.

And so on and so on.

"Someone will still have to pay taxes on any profits earned by dividends."

SFG, Actually, the bill that the Tax is written into {Bush's tax cut bill} is designed to ELIMINATE "investment" income from taxation. So, in this instance, you are wrong. Peace and love, George.

"Secretary Snow, who likes to snow people,"

SFG, BTW, do you REALLY think that ain't so?? Then, maybe he could be more forthright when discussing our national debt. The Treasury Department is, as of 12/31/2002, above the debt limit set by Congress, and as of 04/17/2003, $460,780,111,309.05, above the national debt limit allowed by Congress. 'Splain that! Peace and love, George.
