The Fairtax is a crock of shit -- its a massive surcharge on every city and state. whatever a city or state spends - they have to end the federal government 30% of it.
It;s goofy as shit.
The Flat tax - another con job. These bastards are lying fucking snakes in the grass.
Whatever name they give their tax plan -- you can bet its really just the fucking opposite.
Tax all income types the same. That ONE change would cut the tax code by 90%. Right now, earned income (self employed, wages,salaries, small business profit)pays up to 300% higher taxes than unearned income. (cap gains, dividends). Most of that tax code is written to keep differences in the various ways you make money. Just have income be income - dont treat one way to get an income any differently than another.
I don't even like him, but that's the sad thing, people will focus on that the most, I care less about talking a good game, basically why everyone's hyped over Obama right now...
Go with Fred! There should be a low flat tax rate on incomes over 50,000.00.Say 5 to 7 percent. And a low national sales tax rate. People who make more, pay more. People who make less, pay less. A 3% tax on food to go to feed the poor. And all the tax on gas and oil goes to highways and public transportation. Water should be free, and cities should generate their own electricity and provide it for free.We should have a strong military but only based in our country, unless asked.
Hello capevideo. Did you see the recent Alan Greenspan interview on Fox business channel? He states that governments who authorize a central bank(private banks) to print their money will go down in flames due to printing too much money and causing inflation. All you're ideas are FINE however The Federal Reserve will always cause inflation.
Hi Sig, I would think that the federal reserve bank would not have to print more money in this type of enviorment. I also forgot to mention that, any savings into a retirement account would be tax free, forever.
Hey there Talkutube. The reason the Fed(through the treasury) prints(creates) money is because the government borrows from the Fed...then charges interest on that money which the government is not able to pay back. No matter what environment exists...the government is always in debt to the bank...(dang 500 word limit)google video "the money masters" for a long explination on some of this.
What plan didn't you hear? I heard: 1. Dump the current tax code. 2. Put the Fair Tax out there and start working on it. He's a realist, the POTUS doesn't just say "kill the tax code" and it happens, the plan will have to be put out there and fleshed out in Congress.
It's not just a plan..it's a bill. Dr.Paul's H.R.1148- "To abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal reserve banks, to repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and for other purposes. That's a REAL PLAN!
I'm a big Fred supporter (Fred 08!) but I wasn't pleased with that answer... it was a typical politician side-step. If you think the current tax code is bad what do you have in place to improve it? Will you back one of the other "good plans out there" like the Flat Tax or Fair Tax? It isn't a tough question but it is one that I would like answered honestly, not skirted around by election time.
mikecortily nailed it on the head! It is not the President that can change the tax code, only Congress can change the tax code. Any Presidential candidate that dares to promise he/she can change it is only speaking from a tree stump and trying to gather support from village idiots demanding a tax code change.
Your opponents on both sides are beginning to roll out plans. Actual plans with details, you are still just defining the problems. We ALL know what's wrong. What are your PLANS, with details, to help us solve the problems. It is the US voter that is putting all of your plans on our table to figure out the best way forward. I would suggest that next time you make a video titled "Fixing the Tax Code," you explain your plan to fix the tax code or get out of the way. Loved you in Red October...
Boy Fred sure is a good dancer but he didn't answer the question. Because he can't without answering first what he would do with the fed reserve bank if that stays in place they will just write a new code to steal your money! But again kudos to you Fred that sure was some fancy foot work there

If the "Fair Tax" and the "Flat Tax" are steps in the right direction then FRED
My tax concept is ONE GIANT LEEP FOR AMERICANS!
No Tax Until Death will:
1. Lower individual income to Zero in 40 years.
2. Lower employment taxes to 2% in 40 years.
3. Give retirees more money each month than Social Security.
4. Allow stay at home moms to have a retirement account.

Here is a very simple answer to a very simple question. Abolish the PRIVATE Federal Reserve and abolish it's strong arm the IRS.
Why is Dr.Ron Paul the only candidate willing to do both? Why is Ron Paul the only candidate who knows the Federal Reserve is PRIVATE?
