Being against the Status Quo need not imply that one believes a National Sales Tax to be a Good Thing.

If you're "against the Status Quo" as you say, let's see your plan for the way to reform the tax system. Seems that most Status Quo Lovers really have no such real plan.

Please enlighten us.

What blows my mind is anyone who is in favor of the Status Quo.

The Marxist Progressive tax system we have rewards negative behavior(aka the poor), and punishes the successful (aka the rich). Compound that with God only know how many different federal taxes we have vs. 1?

What would you rather fight 1 tax or 200 different types of Federal taxes? I guess no matter where you go in life you are always going to have those NEGATIVE people that lack testicular fortitude to try something different.

Doc, everyone here agrees that taxes are not 'good things', -- they are a necessary evil.
What harm could come from repealing an admittedly evil income tax system, and adopting a fair tax type scheme?

I suggest we all get, as Sprite says, the testicular fortitude to try something different.
