Herman Cain is my front runner... What about you?

 

This guy will DELIVER!

 

 

What do you guys think about his 999 tax plan?

 

And yet, Cain keeps rising. As he is leading in countless polls, and yesterday was on Meet the Press, and knocked it out of the park.

 

 

He may not have the money, or the press, but he has the tea party support, and plan to get rid of the burdensome tax code that rewards friends and penalizes enemies, and make it all the same for everyone. So that GE will actually PAY taxes instead of being a friend to the current administration and paying NOTHING.

 

And Cain's theme song is incredible!

 

 

 

 

In their own words.

 

 

 

Yup, I have to agree... (although I'm sure Whale wouldn't see this as media bias)

 

All of them.

 

SS included, as well as FICA. Those are taxes that are essentially "hidden" from the public as they don't even consider them as they get taken out of their check/employers pocket.

 

So that will be replaced with a flat 9 percent income tax. Which is easy, and doesn't have all the "special" rights built into the current tax code, where some people pay more, and others pay less. It would be a fair system.

 

Then you would have a 9 percent sales tax on everything. So if you buy used (thrift store, or online) you would pay NO tax on the things you purchase, which would make people less likely to throw things out as the second hand market would increase dramatically.

 

Plus, currently everything we buy has taxes taken out in EVERY process of production, if you saw the actual cost of a gallon of gas vs the cost based on all the taxes at every step of the way, you would be shocked. All of that would be taxed ONCE. Which would logically lower the cost for ALL products significantly.

This is a point that the media/republicans/democrats don't want you to pay attention to... They make TONS of money off of all these hidden taxes. And WE pay those taxes every time we buy something. So now those cost to make a product would go way down, and then the free enterprise system would kick in... Companies would want more market share, and would lower prices, because their profit was now much higher since they didn't have all those hidden taxes included in the price of their product.

 

THAT is where you would see a significant difference in our current system, and THAT is what everyone ignores. The loaf of bread is a good example. The farmer buys the seed, fertilizer, and other chemicals and pays taxes ON EVERY PURCHASE, then he sells the wheat which is taxed again, then the company makes it into flour, which is taxed again, then the flour is purchased by a distributer... taxed again, then the company that makes the bread buys the flour and makes the bread... taxed again, then the supermarket buys the bread from the manufacturer, and you buy the bread and guess what... YOU pay tax again...

 

All those taxes would go away, and you would have ONE 9 percent tax.

 

That is the story that the media and political elites hope you don't pay attention too... They have been gaming the system for years and we all pay the difference. Of course they don't want to limit their income!

 

 

No more hiring tax professionals to help you "hide" your tax costs by manipulating the system, no more GE paying ZERO taxes. No more rewarding your "friends" while penalizing your enemies. And this stops the government from hurting businesses they don't like while rewarding business they do like...

 

So of course the media and politicians hate this plan!
