We are destroying an economy that was once the marvel of the world by excessive debt financing the consumption of imported goods and energy and an abysmal savings rate.
Cain’s plan is the only one on the table to dramatically change the incentives in a fundamental way to return to domestic production of goods and increased savings.
The bold is key for you naysayers. You don't like it because of what congress may do. But you don't tell us what your favorite candidate will do.
Cain is the only one with enough guts to draw a line in the sand. I'll take however many years of 9-9-9 I can get. Congress will be hard pressed to raise the sales tax due to its effect on the economy and it took the democrats years to get the income tax where it is today.
The alternative is to side with the dems. Tax the rich, add a VAT anyway.
