Quote from Grandluxe:
...Everyone is just going on about the 9% tax +state tax. Don't forget you will only be paying 9% federal income tax, or are you all paying nothing now which is why you are going insane?
This is where the naysayers are trying their scare tactic on Cain's plan.
Even Mitt Romney is either dumb or played dumb about it in last night's debate.
The state tax and the federal tax
are two different/separate items.
This is where Herman Cain was trying to explain by using the terms "apples and oranges".
The state tax is the "apples".
The Cain plan with the federal tax is the "oranges".
People aren't realizing that they will
still have the "apples" and "oranges",
whether the 999 plan is implemented or not.
Are they thinking they won't have to pay state tax if the Cain plan isn't implemented???
People in this country are dumber than shit.
They just hear the word "tax" and get so scared that they can't think straight.
Everybody should pay some taxes.
Hey...maybe "999" is too much.
Maybe it should be "333" or "444".
But, whatever; that can be worked out for
final legislation.
Right now, it's a mega-positive step in the right direction.
