LOL, who cares?

Imagine the politics if the Dems choose to filibuster this!

How will minorities feel about this? Who cares?

I care. We have to earn their votes too.

We care. In addition to all the taxes we have to pay, we have to pay an accountant $350.00 to prepare our annual tax filings with the IRS! And this is only federal taxes. Don't forget state taxes, real estate, and school taxes and all those hidden taxes no one can figure out because they are "hidden". Also, if we got rid of the IRS and went with a flat sales tax or whatever, imagine the relief in not having to plow through piles of papers and receipts. Whatever they come up with has to be better then the system we currently have. A system that most tax accountants don't even understand - a system that most IRS employees don't understand! The time is right.
