I suggest that it be implemented on a trial basis in Rep Chaka Fattah (D) Congressional District in PA. Perhaps he can be voted out of office.
His constituents likely wouldn’t mind because they mostly deal in the underground economy, LOL.
Employers in U.S. Start Bracing for Higher Tax Withholding
Everything they propose involves a tax.
This bill is going nowhere. It was assigned to the appropriate committee and the committee never even scheduled a hearing on it, which means that it can’t even be marked up. This is about the 8th time that I know of a story about it has been posted. It is such a bad bill that not even the Dems went for it. This bill will die when the current Congress adjourns, and no doubt he will try to introduce it again. But I predict that, again, it will die a slow painful death. There are a lot of things to worry about, this isn’t one of them.
We should pay the debt off by cutting the Federal Budget 10%/year and using the savings to retire debt.
My thoughts exactly. All this does is open the door for a “black market” in the U.S. and lots more “under the table” transactions.
I agree. The bill doesn’t even have a single co-sponsor.

I wonder if welfare, social security and food stamp benefits/checks would be taxed also?
Well, if at first you don’t succeed in destroying the private banking industry....

I have a better idea for the asshole: How about cutting spending down to almost 0 for 7 years until the deficit is paid off?

Cut back on political luxuries. They don't need a private Washington gym and spa for gawds sake! Forget the million dollar dinners. Serve hot dogs like everyone else - unless they're using their own...er...our own money they scammed from under the table deals.
