I don't like it because everything is a bait and switch. The already high 23.5% rate will increase over time. The prebate will decrease. That's just how it works. All the happy talk about having more control is just that - happy talk. The tax applies to essentials like food and gas. This gives the government more control over how much we pay for those essentials. You know, the same government that is orchestrating food and energy shortages. If the rate goes up, retailers will have no choice but to charge it. We need food and gas and will have no choice but to pay it.

At least now, we can find alternatives to paying income taxes with the underground economy, filing as exempt or not filing at all. The government doesn't control that. I like it that way.
