...abolish all corporate and personal income taxes and go with a uniform sales tax of about 15%. This would tax all the drug dealers and illegal aliens

Wow, thanks for the shining beam of wisdom. I actually understand what UNIFORM SALES TAX means.

What I don't understand and probably neither do you is how do you get drug dealers to pay a UNIFORM SALES TAX when they are selling illegal products?

Turn themselves in or just gave their customers a sales receipt?

I object to it because of the people on fixed incomes. Lot's of our seniors have paid in most of their lives. It's bad enough their benefits got taxed under Clinton, but now everything they purchase or need will cost much more.

At 20 to a house, not many. Here in Nevada, they shop in the fleamarket in the North of town. The food comes in from Mexico, the clothing comes in from Mexico..no doubt in someone's truck. They aren't spending alot in the surrounding neighborhood. They cost us plenty tho.
