Quote:Cons: Well, the problem is that, while in absolute dollars the consumption tax hits the wealthy more, in relative terms it will swallow every cent of the poor's money. Why? Because the poorest Americans save nothing on average, being forced to spend every cent they make to survive. It's this fact that keeps them from having to pay taxes, and this fact that would make a consumption tax on them equal to 100% of their income.
Fuck you, Woodie. Go back to sucking Koch Kock.
I'm not espousing a consumption tax dummy. I am learning about it and asking people what they think about it. I'm looking for the opinions from people with IQ's above their shoe size....you're not in that category.
Christmas is coming up...perhaps you should spend your time putting decorations on your dunce hat and let the intelligent people talk.
