You deride the Fair tax and and don't seem to be too up on the flat tax..

The flat tax is fine, but I don't see it as that big of a change of the current system. Personally, I would adjust the current system to lower marginal rates and simplify it by eliminating stupid rules like the alternative minimum tax and providing taxpayers with more protection from the IRS. The number one thing we need to do is reduce the size of federal government from 20% of GDP to under 15%.

What is YOUR the alternative to income tax, numbnutz..

I am doing quite well under the current system, and I consider the sales tax as an assault on my business, the home building industry. So I am mostly just anti-Sales Tax.

You deride with out an alternative.. sounds like a democrat..

LOL, right. Unlike Democrats, I love this country and enjoy what we have. I favor tweaking it not scrapping it. Going back to what Reagan did sounds good to me.

Again, as I have pointed out many times, your opposition to the NRST is based wholly in personal greed and fear.

Ya, it stayed that way for a long time. Hell, why not go back to the original flat income tax. After all, it wouldn't just turn into the nightmare we have now would it.

That answers my questions quite well... thanks..
i.e. You are doing "alright" under the current system. So if it works (for you) why fix it.. or better, a little tweeking will make it EVEN BETTER!.. Thought as much..

Bigun; reminds me of a quote..
"This boys about as sharp as a bowling ball.." -Foghorn Leghorn..

I still feel the Fair Tax is a Utopian Scheme, boys, but the current system is seditious from the git go(seditious to a republic not a democracy).. To Make it BETTER.?. Barf.. my spirit spits on it from the inferno... The federal government is "THE" Trojan Horse however you fund the freepin parasitical werewolf...
Damn.. I'm almost a Loosertarian..

Somebody slap my ass.. but be careful I'm armed.. and very very pissed off..
