Hey FAIR TAX supporters - let's hear you run your fucking mouths now
Especially that part that you all love about getting rid of ALL taxes for businesses?

2. I never knew that about getting rid of taxes for businesses.
Someone posted a question earlier -- how much did Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, AIG, etc. pay in taxes? I don't have the answer, but it's a valid question.

3. Yes, that's a central part of their plan
They want to eliminate ALL corporate taxes.

Meanwhile, they want YOU to pay a national sales tax on EVERYTHING - including food, medicine, and services.

4. Ah. I'd never looked into it because I felt there wasn't a chance in hell
it would ever take effect. On the surface, sounds great! Now I see, as usual, their idea of "fair" and ours differ enormously. Thanks for the Cliffs Notes! :hi:
