9% on top of the already excised items as well? Gas, cigs, beer?

Bush had a tax plan, cut taxes, cool. We need to Gut Gov't, where is that plan of his?

If the oil companies ,beer brewers and the tobacco companies go from 35% to 9% in corporate tax, they will have to reduce their prices to the market. IE...gas $3 gal before excise tax may drop as much as 10% to $2.70 gal. The excise tax, sales tax and fed 9% would actually lower the cost at the pump by a few pennies.

Exactly ... gov spending is the problem, till that is hit with a huge hammer, there is no tax fix. When will these supposed conservatives tell us how they will shrink government and government spending? Bunch of progressives I am thinking. Step up to the plate and show us what you are going to do.
