What stops them from raising taxes today except THEY decide who pays and who doesn’t.
With 999 everyone has a dog in the hunt.
Now they would be AFFECTING everyone.
Now you would have 100% of the folks pissed.
A 100% pissed off electorate would be a good thing..IMO.
I'd like to see it.
I agree with you. Having 100% of America paying taxes would mean less power to the politicians and also less power to the masses to vote themselves benefits from my labor.
I’m more than willing to take a chance that the national sales tax might “expand” some day in exchange for those system changing benefits.
And good lord would I enjoy the month of March not having to think about filling out some massive tax forms. More productivity and enjoyment. That is worth something.
