Neither McCain or Obama proposed the tax plan that really should be done. We need to FIRST abolish the IRS, because if we don't, some politician will want to re-introduce it on TOP of whatever is to replace it.

Then we need a national sales tax, or some variation of it. No loopholes, everyone paying their fair share.

A heavy, progressive income tax was first proposed for this country by KARL MARX! The super rich have always found ways to avoid most taxes, and the poor pay nothing. That leaves the working class to carry most of the load.

Don't believe that Obama will soak the rich. After all, they got him elected.

Yes!

The fair tax is exactly what we need.

Imaging the entire population actually paying the same tax, rich, poor, legal or illegal, everyone pays the same percentage.

We could solve our National Debt in a few short years.

There was a recent discussion of this in the tax forum. I suggest you look for it.

Treason and sore losers don't sit well with me, but my response here has nothing to do with being testy. I was simply pointing you to a recent discussion of the same issue.

I know exactly how you feel, Socialism and Radicalism don't sit well with me either.

Thanks for your help, but I know enough about the fair tax for now.

Then it would behoove you to learn what they mean before you complain about them.

Obviously not.

We can't abolish the Federal income tax since that goes to the private federal reserve bankers to pay the interest on the money lent to the United States Government. Anything with the word "fair" in it would not serve them. Won't happen.
