Hello,
I don't usually get into off topic "discussions" but I have to
weigh in here...
there has been talk of a flat tax, and is displays how much
everyone's perceptions have been warped.
There is a difference between a "flat tax" and a "flat RATE
tax".
A FLAT Tax is .. everyone pays the same AMOUNT. .. $10, $1000,
whatever.
A Flat RATE tax is everyone pays the same percentage. It is
still a tax on INCOME.
Our founders strictly forbade ANY tax on INCOME and mandated a
FLAT TAX ONLY. That was the purpose of the census. To determine
by count the number of people, thus the amount of $$$ that would
be brought into the federal coffers. No projections, no
waffling, .. X number of people times X number of dollars.
