I think one paid poster in the past, Chief Negotiator is no longer with us.I have a very strong suspicion that phil_will1 is paid by the AFT, also.
WHat is "coincidental maybe"? Your post is not clear on that. Would you elaborate?
I think it was an arson/murder. I think the prime suspect was a neighbor who had a rather large criminal record. That was tragic, and Chief was otherwise a good fellow.
I read your last reply. One word, ingenious.
When Gene Malove was killed in CT last year it was labeled unresolved. I do not think that was a coincidence. If the chief's demise is resolved then I guess there is no issue here.

Except it would be a federal offense.
What would be a federal offense?...
Compensating a CEO of a corporation would be a federal offense under your sales tax plan?
How would anyone know what form of compensation a CEO is receiving if there are no audits or agents to audit them...Won't all the IRS agents be fired?
I missed your answer on how the feds would know if a corporation was doing the purchasing for their CEO's as compensation...
Would there be audits of corporations like CNN for example who aren't subject to a sales tax and the CEO's who work for them or not?
Without audits, how would you catch them?
It all goes back to the understanding that the IRS or a similar administrative body will remain with us as long as the US Treasury needs our property as they have none of their own. If one is going to keep the IRS then why get rid of the really egregious parts of the income tax code so the weak, the stupid, the poor and the liberal can still tax us "rich" folks at an even more progressive rate? Does it work for you?
"I have a very strong suspicion that phil_will1 is paid by the AFT, also."
LOL You have a lot of suspicions. I have my suspicions about you, also. Where does that get us?
How is your Nightmare tax plan coming along? Got any co-sponsors lined up yet?
"How is your Nightmare tax plan coming along? Got any co-sponsors lined up yet?"
What about Always Right, Final Authority, LewisLynn, and Willie Green? Have you convinced any of them yet? They can't co-sponsor, of course, but they could help you drum up support.
"That's not a very artful dodge there Phil."
It isn't a dodge at all, Louie. If you check posts #507 and 6, neither have anything whatsoever to do with the point that you raised.
I will have to admit, tho, I'm not in your league as a dodger of questions.
BTW, when does Larken Rose's trial start? Or has it started already?
So do you work as a college teacher or as a bureaucrat? Because it's obvious from your above statement that you have never worked in the business sector of the economy because if you had you would know that your above statement was complete BS because businesses factor in ALL their costs when they price their products and services.
LOL You have a lot of suspicions. I have my suspicions about you, also. Where does that get us?But I have stated that I have no affiliations with any organization and that I certainly aren't being paid by any organization. You have refused to if you are being paid by the AFT.
Cascading, as I understand it, is what would happen with the APT tax, Feige's proposal. 1% on every electronic payment.....
I'm under a deadline......I'd love to FREEP, but I must work on my JD instead.........Free-mail me your e-mail, and I'll send you a spreadsheet.
Good to know that your Nightmare VAT/Flat backers think so highly of your plans.
Just for the record (and before you start your accusations) I am neither affiliated with nor paid by the FairTax folks. I merely recognize it as the best plan with a solid bill behind it, with any hope of passage, and with a lot of impetus behind it.
You really should read the bill looey so you can grasp what you're talking about.
Perhaps you think CNN does not sell things at retail, eh?
I don't recall anyone saying it was unresolved. What is the post # were that was stated?
So far as I know it is still unresolved.
Cascading, as I understand it, is what would happen with the APT tax, Feige's proposal. 1% on every electronic payment.....I understand cascading taxes. Pigdog was trying to describe "cost cascading." I've never heard of "cost cascading" or "cascading costs." Have you?
I am not clear exactly what you are saying in this post.
Any economist will agree that changing the assumptions of a model means that the reactions of the dependent variables within it will not necessarily be the same after the change as before.
Don't know what changing the wages of employees would have to do with increasing demand for the company's product or how a choice of increasing wages vs decreasing prices is relevant to anything I have said.
Nor have I argued for any "arbitrary" actions on behalf of employers.
