We have done the numbers and with a 15 per cent sales tax is what is needed. And if you don't have to pay any income tax and only pay tax on what you buy YES I believe people would love it! Think about it. You sit down and do the math on what you buy in a year and how much you pay in income taxes. Half of the population pays no income tax now!

You only get 15% if you keep the Socicial Security tax and you tax all goods, including food. And I think 15% is the 'tax-inclusive' rate, which really translate to a 17.6% tax.
