[Just mythoughts]

There is another bizarre thing about Cruz's VAT tax... I remember back when Clinton/algore attempted to ‘sell’ US on a VAT tax and Rush went ballistic over such a socialist idea... I have yet to read one word (I stopped listening to Rush in 2012) about Rush having any problems with a so called ‘consistent’ conservative, closest to Reagan, since Reagan, proposing a VAT tax. There is something strange that has darkened over the supposed ‘conservative’ wing of the GOPe.

The definition of Conservative has changed since Reagan. They couldn’t beat Reagan so they stole his label.

Rush and Levin ( though Mark went nutso long ago, while he was still posting regularly to FR ) and BLOODY KELLY and many other supposed "CONSERVATIVES", who have been exposed now as CINOs, went all in for Cruz and have given him "cover"; never mention ANYTHING that he stands for/has proposed.

There's a thread here, tonight, that claims that many have been PAID OFF ( WHICH IS ILLEGAL! ), but I don't know if it is 100% true or not.

For whatever reason, Ted is being "protected" and has been from day one. *shrugs*

For my part, I have tried, repeatedly, both here and in REAL LIFE, to get the word out, but I'm just one person and until this thread, had NO backup/help with this tax and Vat stuff.

Re: Rush

Maybe it is because (so-called) conservative sphere has decided Trump is more disruptive, more ‘evil’. They have applied the Buckley rule “lesser of two evils”.

Lots of strange things happened in this (so-called) conservative sphere since Obama started running for potus.

BUSINESS FLAT TAX – SINGLE RATE: 16%

The corporate income tax along with the payroll tax are abolished, replaced by a 16% Business Flat Tax.

The current corporate tax code is riddled with years of accumulated loopholes and special favors, burdening U.S. businesses with the highest top tax rate among the advanced nations. This convoluted and anti-competitive structure will be replaced with a simple 16% tax on net business sales (gross sales minus expenses and capital expenditures).
The current payroll tax discourages work and job creation. The vast majority of Americans pay more in payroll tax than in income tax. The Simple Flat Tax will eliminate the payroll tax, boosting jobs and wages for working Americans, while guaranteeing funding for Social Security and Medicare.
