republicans lie again

What he's not telling you is that a flat tax only benifits the rich. Our economy is goig down the pooper and they don't care. Any logical thinking person will tell you that good economies only happen when everyone has money. If the minority has all the money, then what does the minority have? Sounds like Mexico to me.

just my opinion

"FAIR TAX" sounds like a better way of tricking people into a flat tax to me. He is very clearly for lowering taxes on the rich. Its a different story for the poor. No matter how much the rich get taxed thier still rich. he doesnt care about the middle or lower middle class. No matter how many lamborginis steve jobs buys it does not effect our economy. but if the poor can afford chevy cobalts it makes quite an impact. The more the poor have, the more the rich have. when will they relize this?

plus, the IRS wouldn't be vastly huge anymore, which would save the tax payers a LOT of money, they have a bigger budget than the CIA.

and they trample your rights because you have to prove your innocent rather than them proving you're guilty. it's preposterous.

i'm for lowering taxes in general

if we have a flat tax just long enough to pass a constitutional amendment that makes income tax illegal

then create a national sales tax on non-food items it would help the poor because they pay no taxes on the obviously essential food and it would tax people based on their lifestyle rather than their income. currently the rich are SUPPOSED to pay the majority of the taxes, but they just don't. it's almost impossible to evade a sales tax unlike the income tax

According to you everyone would be realestate agents and layers. Who would work at McDonald's or Goodwill for minimum wage? If no one has to be poor than there is the oppertunity for each and every person to be rich. If that had any truth to it there would be no one to make any of these(everyone) rich people their lunch. Either that or a Big Mac would cost $50 bucks. Your an idiot who has no concept of reality outside of his own.

Absolutely nothing else than racial discrimination? Is that your point?

Because if you think racial discrimination has to do with all economic and social injustices, I advise you to read up on all kinds of history of homogenous settlements, and then come back to me, affirmed in your belief that all economic and social injustices stem from racial discrimination...

[TimeWarp66]

The point I am trying to make is: Racial discrimination creates the type of class gaps and social resentment you mentioned earlier. It has nothing to do with free market capitalism.

[Myschly]

Please read this: What does that have to do with what I wrote earlier?

Could you please explain to me the point you are trying to make?

[TimeWarp66]

That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard. A flat tax is a superb idea, the rich would still be paying a hell of a lot more then the poor and middle class. But nevertheless the FairTax is far superior to both progressive or flat tax systems. The government has no right to steel from us, any form of income tax is incompatible with a free society, and punishes productivity as Mr. Huckabee explained in this video.

About 30% of the U.S. population is non-white, and has gone through historic discrimination and oppression. The same cannot be said of Sweden.

[Myschly]

Eh? There are minorities in Sweden? I don't see your point with that one either... Explain please?

I'm not grouping people into classes, I'm looking at the societys, and in the US we've got a disgraceful class segregation.

Individualism doesn't have anything to do with class politics.

[TimeWarp66]

There aren't any minorities in Sweden either? Stop grouping people into classes, and see them as individuals.
