OTOH, Cruz's 10% "FLAT TAX", sans the VAT TAX, doesn't raise enough money to support the government, even IF it were cut to the bone. That was proved decades ago, when the FLAT TAX was set at 15%!
The VAT TAX turns the nation into a FASCIST society. It would also utterly destroy our economy and this nation.
We need tax CUTS, less waste, a smaller government, far less handouts, and a fiscal conservative at the helm, which Cruz is NOT one of!
I see we agree on smaller government in general.
Other than that I can't make much sense of your arguments above. How is consumption-based taxation Fascist?
