Just think of all the lobbyists who would be out of a job too!

I'm all for ending the income tax, but don't think the lobbying will go anywhere. It will just switch to which consumer goods are taxed...

Well, a major reason for the nrst is to eliminate that lobby. That's why there are no exceptions. Income and investments are tax-free. Personal retail consumption is taxed. End of discussion.
