HUCKABERRY HOUND=FAILURE idiot..just like the rest of the Pol ished ticians..except ron paul=FAITHFUL to the TRUE core of what america was founded upon. it's simple people..RON PAUL IS THE ONLY ONE for america. PERIOD. END OF ARGUMENT! his voting record, WHAT he says WHAT HE DOES..= TRUTH JUSTICE AND THE AMERICAN "TRUE" WAY OF LIFE! Huckaberry hound is just another fake neo con. WAKE UP!!

  • Huckabee used to be FAT lmao.

  • Love Ron Paul! he will be the first and only real president to help us we the people.

  • go to fair tax dot org , where Neal Boortz explains revenue neutral means cutting taxes across the board!

  • @1integrity the only fair tax from the federal government is the one WE NO LONGER PAY..PERIOD....end the irs, END the federal reserve..give the people BACK their fucking money that THEY...THE PEOPLE worked for..NOT the irs...NOT the fed reserve and get people taking after david ramsey's ( grandma's common sense advice) " live on less than what ya make and pay YOURSELF by saving". we dont need a special fair tax bill to do that. and while we're at it..ILLEGALIZE credit cards.no encouraged debt

  • I was going to basically create this video but you have already done it. Thank You.

  • Nice videos this you tube world just gets bigger every day! When you have time come visit my channel!

  • Nice videos this you tube world just gets bigger every day! When you have time come visit my channel!

  • Huckabee is a fraud. He came out for the fair tax ONLY after he was down in the polls.

  • @lizardman77 Wrong! Huckabee came out with get rid of the irs and supported the fair tax long before it was popular :-)

  • @1integrity when did Huckabee come out with VERBALIZING that he wanted to get rid of the irs? IM' NOT saying you're wrong.just asking..because honestly i doubt it was before ron paul did the same. Huckabee=" we are one nation under god if one person makes a mistake we ALL make the mistake together" ah...NO common sense tells me that is the same BS that the school teachers would do . punish EVERYONE for the mistake of one. and THAT DOES NOT equal decency and common sense. fu huckaberry hound

  • @video: Revenue and taxes are different. The Fair tax eliminates alot of wasteful spending, which means to have the same revenue you have lower taxes.

    Also Ron Paul is in favor of a flat tax, not a no tax. He has been saying it over and over again that he would love to remove the tax, but it is impossible too. So he would still have a small flat tax.

    Ron Paul and Huckabee are both in the right direction, they have different ideas how to eliminate the IRS and give back power to the states.

  • I think most conservatives agree Ron Paul and Mike Huckabee were the only good candidates in 2008 for the GOP. I personally hope a COnservative governor (Jindal, Daniels, Pawlenty, Huckabee) wins GOP nom. in 2012 or maybe Jim DeMint or Ron Paul.

  • Mike Huckabee used to be pretty tubby.

  • To say the "Fair Tax" is "revenue neutral" does not mean we'd all be paying the same amount of taxes. The rich would still pay the most, the middle class much less, and the poor nothing. But MORE people would be contributing to our tax system who currently do not (illegal aliens, foreign tourists, drug dealers, hookers,etc) So while it would be "revenue neutral", most of us would still end up paying less taxes.

  • @eflint1 great post!

  • I would love to NOT have an income tax. This is ridiculous notion that we have to pay a tax for simply earning money.

  • Ron Paul is the Man , I wish he will run for 2012 .....

  • This video is a bit misleading about the FairTax - yes it is revenue neutral, but you wouldn't be paying the same amount of taxes -- you are NOT taxed on your income, only on your consumption OVER the poverty line. Revenue neutral means the governmnet would still bring in the same amount of money - now illegals & tourists are paying taxes there for widening the tax base.

  • America, I have a question. Why the hell did you vote McCain? Come on, seriously? WTF is up with that? Huckabee was a good candidate, but Paul was the best. Did you not vote for Paul and instead go with McCain because Sean Hannity and Mark Levin told you to, simply because Paul's a librtarian who wants to shut the fed down and end the abusive IRS? And instead they just mock Paul and tell you to keep slaves to the left right Republican and Democrat paradigm?

  • Why would anybody support the Fair Tax? The fair tax is regressive, and lower the purchasing power of the dollar.

  • @cartmanfan0316 Actaully, what decreased the purchasing power of the dollar is the fact that it is not backed by a gold standard and has no real securities in it. A fair tax would not do that. Sorry, you fail.

  • @LordoftheKaty You fail.. The gold standard? Should we go back to riding horses and drinking from wells and beating our wives? Its not 1883 any more get used to it the USA is not the only country in the world get used to it.. Ron Paul is not as great as everyone thinks he is..

  • The left is doing great things and making great strides in the name of peace and equality and any obstructionists getting in the way of global peace and stability is nothing more then a traitor to humanity.. the Gold Standard.. do you have any idea what that would really mean? I don't think you do because you wouldn't be touting such a stupid idea as that if you did.. Gold is worthless.. You will soon find out.. Once gold is obsolete do we then go to the mcnugget standard? Moron.

  • @Foreverx1918x Gold is worthless? lmfao Thats why it has been increasing in value lately with the fall of the dollar. And you talk about the left doing great things. Give me a break, its because of the left why we are here. This crisis goes back to Jimmy Carter sigining into law in 1977 the Community Reinvestment Act which coerced banks to handout toxic loans to people who could not afford them all in the name of "equality". And look at what the left has done to Detroit...enough said.

  • @Foreverx1918x Obviously you know nothing concerning economics and our monetary system. I should expect that from a sheeple like you, who only brings up more irrevelent bs. Not 1883 anymore? WTF does that have to do with anything? BTW, moron, do a little research into history, it was FDR in 1934 who took us off the gold standard for the Federal Reserve cronies.

  • @LordoftheKaty Because I disagree with you I must obviously know nothing.. Well that coming from an idiot is a complement because if I thought like you did I'd be just another capitalist pig.. so fuck off.

  • @Foreverx1918x Why how such a gracious complement by calling me a capitalist pig! You're damn straight I am.

  • @LordoftheKaty Well, oink oink your time at the trough is over.

  • @Foreverx1918x Ditto my friend

  • @LordoftheKaty O really..? I work a great deal.. so much that you and your greedy apathetic and selfish kind have just seem to have forgotten about.. You think I spend any time at the trough.. I'm too busy putting slop in the bucket for you and your kind to sit and eat.

  • @Foreverx1918x And I hope you have fun after the lefts reckless spending has bruoght a collapse to the dollar and you have nothing because of it. Before you praise the left, look at what they have done to California, which is on the verge of collapse. You can't honestly tell me that a debt of 12+ trillion is "good".

  • @LordoftheKaty *brought

  • @LordoftheKaty ah nice and tricky words blaming the left for the rights agenda of greed and corruption that is what actually brought down the economy in California.. California can handle its own economy by embracing freedom of choice and its relationship to all those seeking a better life with in its so called borders. Since Arn'tiold swharzaterminator has been in office.. California has been in a stand still. He's a republican by the way..

  • @LordoftheKaty A debt racked up by the right? No if where going to talk Capitalism while its sill exists I'd say no.. the debt stacked up by the right while trying juggle the uniform of "Fiscal responsibility" and the rights and need of the people is what has racked up this debt.. Not to mention the endless wars initiated by the right.. so who has really made all this debt.. you blame the needy I blame the greedy.

  • It comes down to the huddled masses and the few who have taken so much and claim its their right to keep it.. Well let me tell you the huddled masses have become so large that the only way left to control them is to do their best to appease them.. hence the debt.. I say to hell with it all lets wipe everything and start working together globally. But seeing as how your stance is so utterly opposed to international cooperation and peace I guess we can either live by the rule of capitalists or...

  • @Foreverx1918x I never implied that the republican neo-cons aren't responisble, they have as much blame with the war and all. Yes, I'm against it. Your definition of fiscal responsibility it seems is based on lies cojured by republicans, well true fiscal resposnibility is based on not spending what we don't have. I say pull our troops out of Iraq, because its not our place to police them. Another argument by Dr. Ron Paul too.

  • @LordoftheKaty I think are argument lies in the idea of Capital.. I think basing and economy on gold just exemplifies the Irrationality of Capitalism by putting value in things like gold metal's and other pretty useless possessions like diamonds crystals and rocks of no real human value.. such as paper money.. I understand that that money is based on work.. which would be fine accept money can be passed on won stolen gotten very easily illegally ect.. which is why it promotes crime.. continued

  • ...our..* ... I think a more Socialist based economy would weed out the greedy from the desperate very quickly and we would all be agreed upon as to what punishable crime is.. Such as Greed.. money is the root of all evil and people working together for the greater good is the greatest human achievement and goal. With all the great achievements made and so many more on the horizon I think we need to let go of making a buck and just contributing to society.. Every person deserves, continued

  • Access to education, food, clean water and shelter preventive and lifelong health care and access to good jobs.. I mean sorry to sound like to much of a dreamer but capitalism means one thing a future based on debt and misfortune and a planet continually divided by greed and xenophobia.. One more out there point.. If we can every replicate food out of non edible rocks or air and its on sale late night for 299.99 while people are still starving then you know we have fucking failed as a species..

  • That may be far off but not inconceivable.. what is not inconceivable is the fact that so many are eating while so many starve and Capitalists tend to blame the hungry and needy... So they throw $5 dollar bills at them and pelt them with McNuggets and this is the side I'm supposed to be on to be a "good American" I'd rather be a traitor..

  • @Foreverx1918x If thats your argument then lets look to history. In the USSR the government rationalized all grain which allowed 25000 people to starve to death in the Ukraine in what is known as the holodorom.

  • @LordoftheKaty Yes lets look at the bloody history of man kind and see how many people governments have killed.. I'd say the US has far bloodier history.. Native Americans, African Americans. and so on.. But I'm sure you'll have some explanation as to why they don't matter in some form or another.. When fat greedy bastards starve so the hungry can eat its called justice. Those not wiling to share are greedy.. plain and simple..

  • @Foreverx1918x Once again, the GOVERNMENT is responsible for all that. You know, Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt advocated wars of empire. I think your argument is against protectionist companies which mooch off the government for life because they are failures. i.e. GM. Also known as corporate welfare..i.e. bailouts.

  • @Foreverx1918x Since you are obviously a communist, lets talk about people starving. In Russia the government rationalized all grains in the Ukraine and would not give the people any resulting in the deaths of over 25000 per week in what is known as the holodomor. Mao allowed millions to satrve to death also. Here in America, give me an example of a capitalist starving millions of people. Try to.

  • @LordoftheKaty The people of India thanks to the British.. and the Native American starved and the first victims of biological warfare.. hey At least the Russians never used those ;) The Vietnamese thanks to the French and the USA and so on.. I'd say the crimes of Capitalism far out way the attempts at Socialism.. When fat bastards starve so the weak can eat its called justice.. which is what capitalists fear the most.. Don't worry It comes for you just like all capitalists ;)

  • @Foreverx1918x Yes, that is why all the socialist countries like France and Greece are on the verge of collapse because their debt outways their gdp. Sorry, thats just a dreamers dream

  • @LordoftheKaty Still thinking like a Capitalist.. Its fine we don't agree we'll see who is right..

  • @Foreverx1918x Yes, that is why all socialist countries in Europe are on the verge of collapse.

  • @LordoftheKaty No the Capitalist system is nothing more ;)

  • It's funny reading these comments a year later. It was obvious that Ron Paul WAS RIGHT about many things and that most Americans have shit for brains.

  • @ADoseofReality1 It wasn't the American people, its this media that shows only the 'favorites' of these elections, and the people are bought in to what those 'favorites' propose. All the big election channels showed so much of the 'favorites' like McCain, Romney, Obama, and Clinton, than they ever did Ron Paul. Yet Ron Paul won every Republican debate he took part in. Go figure. I never heard about Ron Paul until now, not during the presidential elections.

  • @ADoseofReality1 What qualifies you to make such an ignorant comment about americans?

  • @LASportsFan4Life geeze, you have got to be kidding. Wake up.

  • @ADoseofReality1 you're right about that

  • @ADoseofReality1 Damn straight! Ron Paul can never win because he's honest and tells it like it is.

  • @DJFG85 while i understand PART of your point and agree...you saying he will never win is retarded. the time of the constitution and a revolution has come! " you cannot stop an idea who's time has come" if you dont want to vote for him out of COMMON SENSE...then don't. dont vote for ANYONE .then at least you can say " well im not responsible IN ANY way for the bs this leader has caused" which i dont blame you for what so ever. that =logic to me. But for me. it's liberty or death! im fed up

  • A fair tax, while not as great as Ron Paul's "flat tax" of $0, is still preferable to the income tax, simply because it is based on consumption, not earnings. The more you spend, the more you are taxed, while those who prefer to save or donate are not penalized.

    However, Ron Paul's tax involves cutting down the size and scope of government, overseas military expenditures, and moving the private sector from oppression to prosperity.

    Both are better than the current system. Vote smart.

  • Agreee with you on the "flat tax", but sharply disagree with you on the fair tax. You cannot replace legal plunder with more legal plunder. Just my thoughts.

  • The difference...Gov. Huckabee's plan will work, will be the singlemost thing to help the economy. Congressman Paul's plan will not work...

  • lol mike huckabee = george bush. talks about a good plan, and when their prez they'll screw you over. how is it that he wants to end the irs? and still keep the war? you can't END the irs without the wars in iraw, because the irs is the very reason we go to war. duh

  • govenor huckabbe is super fat

  • What does Governor Huckabee's weight have to do with the issues????

  • if we do what ron paul wants america gets a average of 81,000 attempt attacks every day we would be blown to smithereens...

  • wrong The defense would not be cut under Paul. Billions in overseas expenditures would, which have nothing to do with the security of this nation. With more defense our military can do their constitutional duty of keeping America safe rather than overseas nation building.( George W. Bush spoke against nation building in his campaign in 2000) Remember, boarder patrol agents were sent to Iraq(which anger Muslim terrorists more, adding to security risks) and it hurt our defense with the loss.

  • Loki

    Have you ever stop to wander why other countries hate us in the first place? Hint: it's not because "we're free".

  • And i like how after huckabee said "It wouldnt be a revenue increase or a revenue decrease, it would be revenue neitrul" you cut out the part where it said that it would bring 11 trillion dollars back into the economy.

  • "I'll vote for the FairTax if it comes up because I have made a promise that I will do anything to get rid of the income tax and the IRS, and repeal the 16th amendment and that FairTax certainly moves it in that direction."- Ron Paul

    So all you Ron Paul supporters who are against the fair tax need to shut up.

  • You dumb idiot, thats the point of the FairTax. Replace not JUST the income tax but the whole tax structure with a 26%(?) FairTax. The whole idea is that THEN you make the argument for increasing or decreasing the tax. Its a seperate argument.

    Jeeez I'm a Ron Paul supporter too but too many of you guys and his supporters are just fucking dumb.

  • wow huckleberry used to be a fatass

  • if you believe that ron poul will be presented you are fucked in the head he never had a chance haha fox of all networks would not put him on a debait he fucking sucks

  • you sound awfully proud that your country is going to shit.

  • fuck off comie

  • uh, no semisuave...the income tax goes to pay off the debt caused by the interest on money loaned to the govt by the federal reserve bank, which is a total scam

  • ur a idiot

  • Actually the income tax goes to pay the interest from borrowing from the federal reserve. a majority of services that come from taxes are actually your state taxes and other fees. They are not saying do away with taxes, rather just the income tax:) We are actually funding our mega military by borrowing and overspending.

  • Nor an english teacher, apparently.

  • Oh come on now is that really helpful? Excuse my run on sentence. I actually have a B.S. in Geology, but still not a politician nor an english teacher. P.S. This is the internet, if people can use ROFLMAO, and emoticons, I think I did alright.

  • LOL, leave the geologist alone.....but on a serious note. The money in the people's hands will make more goods and services. You aren't commie unless you truly believe somehow the government is responsible for prosperity. Farthest from the truth. Eliminating the IRS would only help us get back to the point where a father can earn enough to support an entire family instead of working through may to satisfy the tax man. The system will never work correctly, ixnay the IRS!

  • By cutting down the military?

    Don't assume what either candidate wants if you don't know a thing about them.

  • Huckabee is just trying to pass himself off as Ron Paul out of jealousy and hoping Ron Paul fails. It's sabotoge and apparently some people have bought it.

  • I'm a Ron Paul supporter. I've voted for him. I've donated to him. I also like Huckabee. I dont agree with him on everything, but I'll take him over Romney or McCain.

    When Ron Paul talks at the debates and McCain and Romney start laughing no matter what he's saying, Huckabee actually listens, even if he disagrees. Ending the IRS is a step, even if the FairTax takes its place, its BETTER than what we currently have, even Ron Paul agrees. I would hope if Huckabee won, he found a place for Paul.

  • @weknowhowtolive agreed!

  • Oh yea Habeas corpus (Corner stone of our constitution) is been gone since 2006 so wake up people and come to understand the executive administration is wiping their asses with our constitution / liberties and then flushing it into the proverbial shitter. And for what "The Struggle against Terrorist"

  • Also since the Federal reserve is a private bank how do we know if their owners give two cents about Americas interests. Our founding fathers opposed this as explained in the constitution if any one within recent years cares to pick up a copy and read the dam thing. One would come to relize that the Patriot act is unconstitutional and so is the federal reserve and IRS.

  • Families, single men and women who own their own contracting businesses we can't go on living with this sick extortionistic tax system!! If your living high off the hog, then YOU pay it, and keep paying it! As for me I'm keeping whats mine and my family's Cause cerainly no Huckabee gives a damn.

  • Well our income tax that all US citizens are supposed to pay gets put back into the machine we know as the Federal Reserve which is a PRIVATE COMMERCIAL BANK and not one that is affiliated with our government other than being in charge of unconstitutionally coining money, levying taxes and changing interest rates. Which is supposed to be congresses Job!

  • condition peoples behaviour ...sounds like force to me

  • RON PAUL SUPPORTS THE FAIRTAX!

    "I'll vote for the FairTax if it comes up because I have made a promise that I will do anything to get rid of the income tax and the IRS, and repeal the 16th amendment and that FairTax certainly moves it in that direction."- RON PAUL

  • americans are brain dead babyjesus zealot retards...that's why the suck the flabby arse of huckabee. ron paul makes perfect sense...that's why so many people aren't paying attention to him...americans are fluoride sucking 'tards.

  • seeing what you just saw in this video, how can you support Huckabe or any other candidate, for that matter, other than Ron Paul? I dont fucking get it, why do the american people want to be fucking slaves to the government? Appartently you do not like freedom very much! How can you actually like that FUCKING HALF of your paycheck goes to the government? What the fuck is wrong with you people? WAKE THE FUCK UP DUMBSHITS!

  • Funny.

    You make it sounds like we can avoid tax all together. No matter what in the near future we'll have to pay approximately the same AMOUNT of total tax.

    Most of you are missing the point, the beauty of a sales tax is it's simplicity, it creates efficiency in a terribly inefficient government. Now, half your money goes into the bureaucratic black hole.

    Beings an impulsive, shortsighted asshole is a liberal thing DUMBSHIT (Sorry nice people who are democrats, just saying how it is)

  • Huckabee does not believe in evolution. lame.

  • well I don't believe that we can from rocks either. Know what you believe before you bash someone else.

  • um evolution is pretty basic knowledge...unless you are a religious weirdo.

  • And just which primary does Ron Paul plan on winning?

  • Ron Paul

    "Well, ah, I lean toward a flat tax, but I want to make it real flat--like zero."

    Sweet!

  • Here is a question Gov Huck -- did you call any nursing home, and ask what they will do when you make them pay 23% sales tax on their patients? Did you call Cancer hospitals, and ask them? Did you call realtors and ask them about the 23% sales tax on new homes? Did you call the Pentagon and ask how they will pay for 23% extra cost on all they buy?

  • GREAT VIDEO!

  • I agree that consumption taxes are fairer. However, if implemented, how will the government phase this tax in without double taxing anyone who has savings?

    Savings are surplus after tax income. $20,000 in the bank right now will buy you a $20,000 car (net of existing sales taxes). When this tax goes in, that same $20,000 will only buy you a $14,815 car (assuming 35% fair tax, net of existing sales taxes).

  • In other words, the NATION will pay the same amount in taxes. Hopefully, it would be a more equitable division of the tax burden.

  • thanks to him we have 6%on our food...thank you mike huckabee,fed tax, state tax,and in ark we have grocery tax!!.did i tell ya 6%we have to pay taxes to eat.TAX hike mike..wake up!!!!

  • Wayne DuMond was serving life in prison for consecutive rapeing. mike huckabee as arkansas govener pardoned him in 1997. wayne dumond was later arested for the rape and murder of 3 women one of who was pregnant this ocured in 1999.

  • fairtax isnt all that fair. In order to preserve revenue levels the national sales tax would have to be about 30%. That means on every item you buy under the fairtax system you pay an extra 30% There will be no one who gets tax relief under this plan because there is no way of sorting it out.

  • Senior retired citizens will pay just as much in taxes as their working children and grandchildren. Sure the tax is more fair in that everyone pays the tax and its distributed evenly by the amount of goods bought, but the way this will shift the debt burden around is simply wrong. Paul will get rid of the income tax and replace it with nothing, not a sales tax, not a property tax, nothing.

  • Huckabee will replace the income tax with a burdensome sales tax which might as well be an income tax, the poor aren't big savers they spend the little that comes in

  • the poor would have their entire check, so they'd probably be more inclined to save. and what about all the the really expensive things rich people buy? 20% of that that is a lot of revune. Plus, people who make money illegally (e.g, drug dealers, arms dealers etc) would pay a lot more than what they are now - which is nothing except a small sales tax.

  • the poor dont make enough money to save much if anything. More often than not they spend their entire check as it comes in. This is in fact the reason for those get cash now stores in poor neighborhoods, its for those who need the money before their paycheck gets there and are willing to pay a price. As for the Rich, they tend to buy stuff out of the country, those that don't would certainly recieve a high incentive to very quickly.

  • and about drug dealers... no drug dealer is gonna add a sales tax to something he's selling illegally. or are you implying they'd pay more elsewhere. Drug dealers make little to no money. Drug dealing is usually done in a heirarchy, the top few levels make the money, and more often than not they don't live in the U.S. Don't know as much about arms smuggling, but im sure there are some similarities.

  • Thank you for that irrelevant comment.

  • omg i would never vote for someone who used to be fat! RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE! no but seriously, informative and well done video, good on you!

  • huckabee was FAT!?!

  • RON PAUL 2008! The income tax is not even a law! I'll give $100 of fiat money if you can find the law!

  • wow huckabee looks really really really bad

    ron paul 2008

  • I love how Ron Paul talks about how he is so American. I love how he promises the people that he will get rid of the IRS. I love how he tells the people how he will bring home all of the American troops stationed around the world. He is truly not American. He is going to the most naive group of people and telling them how he is going to do all of these things. He is really a hypocrite. Getting rid of the income tax is virtually impossible.

  • If Ron Paul is a hypocrite then what does that make all other politicians? All other politicians are worse than hypocrites.

  • its possible to get rid of the income tax.... if they highly tax goods... if the sails tax is like 100%, you can definatly get rid of income tax... so yea... its possible u moron

  • Getting rid of the IRS/Income tax and bringing our troops home are un-American? Research the income tax and you'll find it's one of the ten planks of the Communist Manifesto of Karl Marx. The income tax is truly not American. It's communist.

    One of the reasons we may not be able to get rid of the income tax is because of the EXPENSE of keeping our troops in 750 bases in 130 countries around the world. Bring them home, and we can afford to get rid of the Income Tax.

  • They are both fools. How could poor people go to school without taxes? We need a president who knows remotely what poverty is. Getting some money taken out of your pay check doesn't feel good, but having that money put to good use is.

  • To the best of my knowledge, public schools are paid for by property tax, Not income tax.

  • Also, the DOE wouldn't be there sucking up most of that money. Most of the money that goes to public education goes to pay salaries in the DOE. In fact, in any bureaucracy that's where most of the money goes, to salaries.

  • Wow you should really get a clue before you post something. First, the federal income tax doesnt pay for public schools. Thats what local property taxes are for. And if you actually think that the federal government spends are money wisely and puts it to good use, you sir are the fool.

  • Property taxes goes to public education (which kinda ticks me off 'cause my kids go to private school...why should I have to pay for other kid's education, but whatever that's not the point here) Income taxes, to my knowledge, goes towards paying off the interest on our national debt. THE INTEREST! How about we CUT SPENDING so we have LESS national debt. Now THERE'S an idea! No more spending on this pointless war.

  • Think about this... let's say we get rid of the income tax. People will then get to keep the money they earn! There will be less poor people and they can pay for their own education! Wow. What an idea.

    Go RP 2008!

  • Any idiot who thinks our government puts our money to good use should go back to kindergarten. Maybe, just maybe, poverty is an issue because the government TAKES their money and WASTES it, rather than letting people keep the fruits of their own labor. Besides, schools are funded by local taxes (property, utility, etc.) not by the income tax.

  • Huckabee is just pandering to everybody. The crazy christian right doesn't realize he is a socialist in conservative clothing. This is coming from one of those Christians.

    Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves" (Matthew 7:15).

  • 3 veterans of the IRAQ war have asked me to vote for Paul. I think i'll listen to them, and not you.

  • This video seems very important to show to Huckabee supporters and undecided voters. I've added it to my favorites, rated it and commented. Who will join me?

  • Huckabee wants to replace income tax them with a single 23 percent national sales tax. It means poor and middle class people like me would be paying more as a percentage of their salary. Huckabee supporter of rich people. Ron paul want real flat tax like 'zero'. Judge your self

    Love

  • Huck supporters ought to take a look..

    Thank goodness I'm a Ron Paul supporter...

    the guy is just real.. honest... has integrity.. and the best judgement..

    America needs a Doctor not a Minister..

  • He looks funny fat, and he's a liar, go paul!

  • Listen to these 'conservatives' advocating government on 'roids.

    We don't need a tax on the people. Every dime of your tax dollars goes to paying the interest on loans the special interest controlled federal government borrows from the privately owned 'Federal' Reserve.

  • Huckabee is just copying Ron Paul's ideas because he sees that they're popular with the American people. The difference is that Ron Paul has been saying the same thing for 40 years and has been backing it up. Huckabee has a record of doing the exact opposite of what he's saying now about the IRS and taxes.

    The media and establishment is trying to turn Huckabee into their own distored version of Ron Paul. Don't buy into it.

  • I love Ron Paul, but do you really think he is electable? I really want to believe so, but I just don't think so. Also, he has great ideas, but when you say you want to end the CIA and Homeland Security, you need to follow it up with an actual plan of action.

  • My vote goes to Ron Paul!

  • The fair tax is worse than the income tax. We need to abolish income tax all together.

    Vote for dogma in 2008. Vote Tax Hike Mike.

  • The so called "fair tax" would pretty much finish off whats left of the American dollar.People do your own research don't listen to me don't listen to them.Don't be lazy!!!!Take an hour to research this so called "fair tax"

  • another important fact .... most americans that are not clued in on the "FEDERAL" reserve yet have no CLUE THAT IT IS NOT A FEDERAL INSTITUTION.... its a PRIVATE CORPORATION run FOR PROFIT! its in the WHITE PAGES WITH ALL OTHER BUSINESSES NOT IN THE GOVERNMENT SECTION ... its incorparated in deleware... the incorporated 1913? is on its seal........WAKE UP AMERICA

  • Do a Google video search for any of the following: "The Money Masters," "Money as Debt," "America: Freedom to Fascism" or "Fiat Empire" to see what ThePatriotMind is talking about.

  • the sad part is most Americans don't care about this. As long as the green paper can still be exchanged for a big mac with fries, then don't care about the details.

  • Struggling Campaign?

    Message trumps Money....everytime.

    I would rather been in 1st place and be broke than be in 2nd place with millions..

  • I'm not sure if replacing the income tax with nothing is feasible, but the Fair Tax doesn't seem too bad. I actually think we should raise the tax on tabacco. Nothing wrong with discouraging behaviors with negative external affects.

  • Do it with logic and programs like DARE, not with taxes and laws.

    Make us understand you, not obey you.

  • Then we might as well allow cocaine and marijuana as well. Either allow them all or none at all.

  • Why pick on smokers?  Obesity is the #1 problom now..now tabacco users. Tax according to Carb/sugar/fat content.

    One day something YOU do or something YOU eat may be taxed unfairly.

  • huckabee wants the people who have money to pay the taxes, not the people who dont. that why our revenue wont change. because people who can afford it will be paying more.

  • So you would rather pay a flat tax than zero tax..... there is no law requiring you to file a federal income tax... find the law and you win a cookie.... abolishing the irs is the ocnstitutional thing to do and replace it with nothing.... suprem court decision 90 years ago stated a mans labor for wages is an equal trade and not taxable and that ruling has been dis reguarded and not reversed for since we began the income tax ... why?

  • I heard Ron Paul say he would sign the fairtax. Is he saying something different now?

    I support a replacement for the income tax, not abolishing the federal government...not a bad idea but one thing at a time. Fairtax makes the cost of Government transparent, not hidden in the cost of goods and services. Read the Fairtax Book and see for yourself.

  • I would take the fair tax over the current system but it is still unconstitutional and shoved down our throat as well as unneeded to pay for anything we need to do as a country ... 100% of all personal income taxes goes to pay the interest on the money the federal reserve creates when the government (congrewwss) could do it themselves without that interest......

    Ron Paul said he is for a fair tax which is no personal income tax ... corpate taxes and federal withholding are still allowed

  • 1.Liberals skirt the Constitution with judge appointments, is RP gonna impeach all the radical judges?

    2.Tancredo and Duncan Hunter are co sponsors of HR25, why didn't RP sponsor the bill?

    3.Corporations/businesses don't really pay taxes..their corporate/payroll taxes are built into the products we buy....hence "taxing the rich" is a tax on the middle and lower income consumers.

  • 1.) federal judges have zero to do with a presidential order abolishing IRS

    2.) he didnt sponser it becuase it is a still a tax on the people on their wages from their labor which in a supreme court decision pre dating the irs ruled that a mans wages from labor are an even exchange and thus not taxable.. RP believes as millions of americans do in ZERO / nada / no tax on individuals income from their labor period no flat tax / no fair tax / NO TAX PERIOD

  • 3.) I pay 5-8 million dollars a year in federal corporate taxes as I should per the constitution. but there is NO FEDERAL LAW REQUIRING ANY PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL to FILE AN INCOME TAX RETURN PERIOD Thus NO FAIR TAX either! - find a federal law that says otherwise for a $10,000 overnighted cashiers check

  • huckabee is just latching onto ron pauls coattails. he has never before the debate said anything about getting rid up the IRS at any time. ron paul has always been for getting rid of the IRS. it scares me that so many dull-witted peole are hopping aboard the huckabee train cuz of trailer trash B movie star chuck norris. are people really so stupid?

  • "I tend to lean toward a flat tax, but I wanna make it real flat -- like zero." -Ron Paul

    LOL I love this man!

    RON PAUL 08

  • Even though I'm a Ron Paul fan--I endorse the Fair Tax. Yes, I--like everyone else--would like to see an end to the Personal Income tax advocated by Ron Paul, but I'm not sure replacing the income tax with no taxes is feasible. It it were possible to do so, I would all for it. If not, the Fair Tax would be the next best solution to the problem.

  • Thanks for exposing the truth!!!

    Ron Paul 08!

  • uh...youre too stupid to realize that the fed is causing inflation by devaluing our dollar.take the 308 billion dollars blown on this crooked war and your hard work might get you something

  • huckabitch looks fat here haha

    RON PAUL 08

  • Ron Paul supporters are such nice people!

  • There is no law which requires you to file an income tax return.

    There is no law which requires you to pay income tax.

    You volunteer when you sign a income tax return.

    You volunteer when you pay income tax.

    You sign away your 5th Amendment rights against self-incrimination when you sign a tax return.

    The money which you pay as your income tax goes to a private banking cartel known as the Federal Reserve System. This organization, also known as the FED, is NOT a government agency.
