“You are, in effect, upset because you don’t want to SEE the taxes that you ALREADY pay.”
And you are extremely naive to believe that everyone will automatically drop the price of their goods because those “hidden” taxes will be removed. You’ve got to be kidding. The prices will stay the same, and I’ll eat a plugged nickle (which is all I will have left if 9-9-9 is implemented, which it never will be) if prices of commodities would actually drop because of Cain’s plan.
Guess you just don’t know human nature very well, lol. But I admire your optimism. Oh, and it will be great when 9-9-9 becomes 15-15-15, etc., and because it will be done incrementally, 1 percent at a time, the frog won’t even feel the water getting warmer and warmer while sitting in the pot, until it’s too late to jump out.

You are RIGHT! Companies will NOT drop prices just because their tax burden is eased.
“Guess you just don’t know human nature very well, lol. “
I know human nature very well. I know that some sneaky b@stard will lower their prices to grab the market share and force other to do the same to compete. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

Yeah, RIGHT! I guess *you* don’t even recognize your *own* nature very well. People like you and me will be screaming our heads off.
As it’s the liberals who tend to raise taxes, it’ll be liberal politicians taking the heat.
“LIBERALS WANT TO STARVE GRANDMA!!” the headlines will scream.
