The National Sales Tax is a great way to boost cross-border economies.
You mean, as in running across borders to avoid it?
How many people cuss the oil companies for high prices without first cussing gov't taxes? We all pay over $.50 tax on a gallon.
How many people cuss the supermarkets for high food cost without first cussing gov't sales taxes? We pay between 5% to 10% on every item.
IMO national sales tax is a horrible idea because there is no accountability. The politicians always tell us that the money goes for education or healthcare which is pure dung beetle juice. I've rarely seen a tax roll back.
If the national sales tax is sure to be enacted though, now's the best time to set up a non-profit corporation to dodge taxes. The day that occurs there will be a flood of ordinations LOL.
Yeah, if you're willing to committ a felony by illegally smuggling more than $3,000 a year in goods across the border. That's a Felony! That counterargument is absurd.
