The inherent flaw with that logic is that it assumes that the Democraps wouldn’t be able to raise taxes with the current tax code if they had control. They would. The threat of them raising taxes will ALWAYS be there, regardless of the plan. It is not at all specific to Cain’s.
Why give them another avenue? Especially one that involves food and clothes. If I am going to be forced to give up all my write offs, the trade had better work in my favor. I don’t see how this one does.
On Perry threads it is highly unlikely that you have a shred of infuence, other than to needle which is fine if you want a verbal brawl. There are, however, Cain threads where you could bore each other to oblivion on his ascent to polishing the apple for Romney.
