GE didn't pay taxes last year. I didn't see any big reduction in their price

And just what do YOU buy from GE? Nice try but a very silly response.

Refrigerator.

Nice try but a very silly response.

To a very silly post.

The same argument being placed here applies even more so to the current system. There is nothing to stop the current tax rates being hiked 20-50-80%

This argument is completely without any rational merit. It is the desperate flailing around by the status quo bots desperate to keep the current political crony rewarding tax system in place.

Every complaint being levied at the Cain plan is even more relevant to the current corrupt failed tax system.

Raising tax rates is actually harder under 9-9-9 since everyone pays so it is impossible to hide tax hikes as being only “on business” or “on the rich”

No tax system will ever be perfect. 9-9-9 eliminates most of the current failed corrupt flaws in the current system while adding NO new flaws.

Arguing, as this author is, that we should cling to our current failed system because any replacement will not be absolutely perfect is childish and irrational.
