With the exemption of the National Sales Tax on intermidiate sales from one business to another business, talk about everyone in America suddenly becoming incorporated...
I am now the owner of the "Investment for me" corporation.
My corp. purchases a new car for business use, no tax...
My corp. purchases a investment home in Vail, no tax...
My corp. purchases food & clothing to provide to its employees, me and my family...no tax...
Yes, the compliance problems and expense of auditing will be at least as large as currently under the present IRS.
A guy registering as a corporation would have to show income.
I was all for a flat or fair tax until I realized that people who earn more money will again get the shaft and pay more taxes then those who dont earn more money.
People need to understand that people are make over 100k per year pay 90%of our taxes.
For some reason people think the well to do crowd dont pay fair taxes when in fact it is the people who earn less that do not pay into the system fairly.
Odd that libs cannot stand the rich with money and want them taxed to death but then they want all these social programs for free giveaways.
The only way a flat tax will work is if they can find a way to make it FAIR for all and not screw over the people who earn more.

Can you cite the source of that data? (which I know is false).
Firstly, 100K + is not the top 1%. (Not even close). Second, if the top 5% makes 95% (a hypothetical number) of all wealth in the nation, it would make sense that they pay taxes on it. (You can't pay taxes on money unearned.)

Your so right, lazy people who wont work dont pay into our tax base therefore you are correct, they cant pay if they dont earn anything because they wont get a job.
I know if it were up to you and most libs they want anyone making any decent amount of money to pay all the taxes.
I see it, people are just plain jealous of rich people and want to take away anything they can from them. You said it, THEY EARNED THEIR MONEY and the lazy DID NOT EARN anything.

1) Whenever someone does the "you libs", you know that they have some serious biases.
2) No. I don't want anyone and everyone. But paying one's fair share is largely in proportionate of what you make. You can't expect to pay next to nothing if you are making a boatload of cash. You are unordinarily profitting from our political, economical, social, infrastructure. One should pay back the system that earns them their wealth.

Bill Gates Sr. and others, agree with Responsible Wealth and a lot of the ideology posed her by us "libs". So are they jealous too? (No, it's just a weak argument without merit, possibly because you don't have a response to refute irrefutable logic. )

I didn't know the middle manager making $50-$75K did not earn their money. That's news to me. Why are they paying more in proportion of the services that they use, than the wealthy?
Since you seem to be the expert in ALL fields in the forum, you do the work and report back to me?
You argue with everyone about every issue and do everything you can to tear down every single word someone types and hold everyone to the nearest perfection you can, if they dont provide you with that exact information you make them out like they are liars.
I have read your post and you seem to never give answers but always seem to question others on almost every issue. Is this your habit or what?
Since you are so perfect on every issue I think I will watch your posting with utter amazement because I have never seen anyone so darn smart in my life.
I am going to push the ignore button on you because I went back and read many of your post in this forum and I decided not to allow myself to answer to your questions on every issue.
If your so perfect maybe all of us should just let you post everything and all of us can watch you.

Do you own homework.

First, I argue about economics and how it relates to US society. Economic issues touch on a few topics. I have been arguing about spanking. That's hardly "every" issue.
Secondly, I haven't called anyone a liar.
I have come to my position due to years of these debates on forums, where other people provided data, and I READ IT. Then I came to my own conclusions based on what I read. The more I read, the more I realized just how different our society was, from what I was raised to believe. I grew up believing there was more merit involved when merit is a minuscule factor in economic outcome. I'm sorry you think it is a personal attack if I suggest you back up your data.

The questions are often more important than the answers. It makes people think out of the box, and it is often a lot less combatant.

Well, a course, the wealthy are gonna pay a much higher share of the tax money. They got a heck of a lot more money to be taxed. This is a very simple concept that anyone should be able to grasp. In other words, you can only get so much tax money out of someone who makes $20,000, but a heck of a lot more from someone who makes $1,000,000.
Further, if the person making $1,000,000, doesn't believe in blowing his money on luxuries then under the Fair Tax a huge share of his money will be in the bank not subject to any taxation. Meanwhile, the person making $20,000 will be lucky to save a few pennies that won't be subject to taxation.
