I’ll tack a trained Federal Tax Attorney over a fast food businessman on the subject of taxes any day. sorry.
You can "tack" her all you want, but she is still wrong. You don't have to be a tax attorney to understand this simple concept. Just like you don't have to be a tax attorney to understand that state sales taxes have absolutely nothing to do with the 9 9 9 plan. The 9 9 9 plan is a FEDERAL tax plan, and replaces FEDERAL taxes. Bachman and Romney seemed as obtuse as David Gregory in not understanding the irrelevance of state taxes in this debate.
You’re saying you’d favor the 5 years experience of a government/IRS bureaucrat over an entrepreneur who’s worked for decades with budgets dealing in hundreds of $millions? Seriously? CEOs and Boards of Directors hire and fire tax attorneys by the score without batting an eyelash.
