Re: Want to see the IRS disappear?

Economic justice isn't just about how you collect taxes, but also how you spend them.

We as Americans tend to believe that if I have a plasma TV everyone should have one. Materialism should not even be remotely included in our assessment of world poverty. There is no comparison of economies. To do so is arrogant and problematic. I have been around the world and seen it first hand. Have you?

[scamon01]

Yes, I have. And I think your comment is arrogant and condescending to suggest that by 'ending poverty' I am suggesting 'spread materialism'. I am a proponent of basic education for every child, especially girls, who are most often not allowed; clean water for all; reform of our farming laws; improvement in maternal health and a lowering of maternal and infant mortality rates- shall I continue? Plasma tv's?

The fairtax is not about how government spends that is left for politicians to debate in other bills. The fairtax addresses and fixes those problems created though how we collect taxes.

While people will debate the merits or problems with government spending we need not continue to punish domestic productivity by taxing it.

exactly the u.s needs to worry about the u.s yeah it's sad that their are ppl living on less than one dollar but the u.s is not god's gift to the world and the u.s should have a fund to help out in natural disasters but thats it. The American ppl should decide if the want to give their money to help out other countries themselves. I totally agree w. u

[05311990frog]

I'm so tired of ppl who feel that is the united states job to be the well fare nation and just give away money to support other nations when we can't even run our own finances. I'm all for helping out in a natural disaster but the U.S needs to mind it's own business and worry about the ppl living on the streets and mothers having to prostitute themselves just to put food on the table.

Fair Tax is revenue neutral. We would collect the same taxes either way. This question of worldwide poverty is a separate question outside of the scope of the discussion.

Although, if you want to, you are still free to spend your money helping out whomever you choose.

Fairtax morons say "just buy used stuff to avoid the tax".

Ever buy used gasoline ? Used utlities? Ever buy insurance premiums?

Ever buy used rent? Hey moron, all those things get the highest sales tax in the world.

Yes -- car insurance, taxed, life insurance, taxed, home owners insurance, taxed.

Rent taxed.

Hey morons, how do you get used cancer surgery? Used nursing home care? Cause all medical cost is taxed.

You can't get dumber than the fairtax and still exhale.

Well the USA has nearly a 2 Trillion Dollar Budget! Now the real question is where is that going!?

Vote Ron Paul! The most fair tax is NO tax
