Is this a 5D chess move? Dem Bait? Getting Democrats to rage against fair tax act?
Is the fair tax proposal by Republicans a trap for Democrats to fall into? Is the ultimate goal of the Republican Party to abolish the IRS and implement a no taxation system, using the Democrats' condemnation of the fair tax as a means to prevent them from proposing a similar solution in the future?
Discuss.
I would certainly prefer the only form of taxation to be tariffs.
Agreed.
Remember folks, we trucked along just fine with zero taxes for over 100 years. This is just another thing they've normalized so we don't question it.
if its a 5d Chess bait then Trump is behind it.
Trump certainly has to be cracking the whip.
"Taxation is theft" -> This is a trap for the patriots.
Government can always tax commerce, infact it should be the only way to fund government.
It could be import duties or sales tax aimed at businesses or aimed at consumer.
The exact amounts should be decided by the people. This is a policy issue and should be voted on by the people at local level depending on how fat they want their government to be.
But any other form of taxation thats not directly taxing commerce is theft. This includes income tax, inheritence tax, estate tax when you die etc etc.
Obviously, there is along way to go from where we are to this system, and FairTax is just a way point. Once people get used to the idea that income tax etc are theft and post awakening when we dont have central banks, the debate will be exactly how much/what commercial taxes are fair.
Thats when I think the clear picture emerges, and it will be different for each state / city depending on how asleep or awake the people are
Taxation is worse than theft IMO.
If one were to believe "Tho shall not kill" and the government can not EVER prove that tax money is not used to kill people, then you are complicit in KILLING by paying your taxes.
Reconcile that. Please.
We should be religiously exempt from paying. Right?
The biggest problem Trump will have is financial knowledge.
A lot of people won't know which financial model will work for them. The democrats can take advantage of this.
Wdym? Please elaborate.
It's easy to tell someone.
If you pick Trump's model. You will end up paying more.
This is because finance has a lot of moving parts to it.
I sure hope so.
