sorry to flood you but a little more on the “zones” Cain said in an interview in Detroit...
For instance, taxes in struggling areas could be set at 3-3-3 rates, 3 percent in each category.
“Because you have a lot of African-Americans located in cities like Detroit — disproportionately — it would encourage businesses to stay in business there or to move there,” Cain told CNN. “It would encourage people to work there, because if you live in the empowerment zone, you’re going to pay a smaller percentage in taxes.”

So what, exactly, do you think of the three Foreign Trade Zones that are set up in your cherished state of Missouri?

Do they square with Marbury?

I agree with you. Cain’s proposal is horrid, but too many Freepers climb on the Cain train then don’t want to hear any actual detail about his candidacy.
