All that said, it occurs to me that SPENDING is the issue. SCOPE OF GOVERNMENT is the issue. The mode of taxation is interesting. A radical reform is attractive at some point.

I am not prepared to give them a new stream of revenue, and I am not prepared to radically overhaul the tax system until they first get their SIZE and SCOPE under control.

Hear, hear. And I wonder why Cain is offering a distraction from the main point. It is either because he is stupid or he is working for Ubama and the dems. He sure is giving them a lot of ammo.
