Yes, it does.

The very mention of it, I'm certain, is also producing ashen faces on more than a few of our modern socialists. Just think of the bad night Hillary must be having at the possibility. LOL

If Americans are aware of how much they pay in tax, they are less likely to endorse government funding social programs. This could have the effect of restricting spending more effectively than has previously been possible.

Note the reactions Americans have when confronted by higher rates at the pumps. It is unfavorable, putting it mildly. They notice when they receive a significant tax rebate from the government. They notice when they receive a raise. Now, they would feel the effects of a tax in a physical rather than abstract sense.

That's the real issue here- not dollars, but control. The IRS currently holds every citizen in a state of potential jeopardy.

This plan turns the tables.
