Re: I am all for consumption taxes if....
...... the consumption tax is 5% and you pay that off the top of your income.....
I was under the impression a consumption tax would be based on what was consumed.
Paying "off the top of your income" is by nature an income tax. Is that not what we suffer with now ?
We need a simple tax system.
Taxes are not about money to run the government. Taxes are about the government having control of us.
