Here is a fact we all can agree on (I think). No matter what or how a government taxes, no reform or change will work unless the government's spending is checked.
Point # 2: Anytime a person takes a dollar out of their pocket and sends it to any government, from the homeowner's association, to the town, city, state, or federal government two things happen. First, the taxpayer has lost control of how that dollar is spent. Secondly, the door is opened for graft.
Point # 3: A business can never be taxed. It always passes the tax on to people. Either the business raises the price of its product or service, or if demand doesn't allow the price to rise, then the business goes out of business and employees become unemployed. These are economic laws just like the laws of nature cycles water.
