The 9% natl sales tax is the great equalizer.

Nope.........Cain has an exemption/prebate for those at or below the poverty level; a level that keeps raising.

This plan ADDS A NEW FEDERAL TAX; not to mention get rid of all deductions such as charitable ones and mortgage interest.

It lowers the Fed bit on income tax ( for many ), lowers the cap gains tax ( which Cain has NO idea about anyway ), but since everyone will NOT have to pay the same, the plan is a fraud; a lie sold to the gullible .
