Nope, don't think so. They bring in more than enough money as is. It's time to kill off the entitlement programs and earmarks. If they raise taxes all it's going to do is make an already weak economy worse. Shrink the government, cut spending. Don't raise taxes.Originally posted by TexasDevilDog View Post -
There are never enough taxes, take a look at countries like Sweden and New Zealand where top tax rates are 50-60%, the governments still don't have enough money. Their economies are heavily socialized, unemployment is high and stagnation has set in. Yet, if their governments could just get that next dollar, all would be fine.Originally posted by racrguyOriginally posted by racrguyComment

Don't sweat it guys. This panel has no power at all. It was created to identify areas that cuts could be made and determine how revenues need can be increased.
There isn't enough time for them to put a bill together and force it through the lame duck congress. It's not happening.Comment

Well that is basically a type of sales tax but it has a double whammy because it is added at each point of manufacture and distribution.Originally posted by Kimmypie View Post
That said, I would be all for it or the FAIR tax if they were replacements for our graduated income tax system.Comment
