Probably a sales tax which would be even worse.

The only way out of this mess is for the government to earn its keep through voluntary donations. Nobody thinks the government knows how to spend money effectively so that’s why it has to force people.

There was no income tax in our Republic until 1913. So we went 140 years without an income tax. The Feds some how managed to get by.

Ron Paul wants to

1) Gradually abolish the income tax.
2) Shrink the government down to it’s Constitutional Size
3) Force it to go to other resources for cast.

"I think he may be a tad off."

And you are referring to Ron Paul, or Steve Moore?

I totally agree on Ron Paul, but not for his financial opinions, just his foreign policy notions. But the chief editor of the WSJ?

That’s cool, but it should be on the GOP platform.

How about no taxes whatsoever, at any level of government?

Government expenses would be paid by money "printed" by the Fed.

All prices and wages would be index to compensate for the resulting inflation.

This idea was gaining currency (pun) today among the Paultards at ZeroHedge.

You need to ask how prior to 1913 the Fed was able to get by.

Tariffs. AKA VAT
