I ain't talking about the paltry measure of merely "cutting taxes."

I'm talking about the stupidity of the income tax, period.

We are loading up our products, those that are consumed in America AND abroad, with all of the costs of taxation. Meanwhile, foreign-made products have none of those costs built in. They not only have the advantage in the world market, they are advantaged in our market too. It's sheer stupidity, and in fact economically suicidal.

Well foreign products from other first world nations do have taxes built in, as in the costs of national healthcare in these nations, its just that the costs are tabulated differently, in a less direct manner compared to the US.
