Hi
If you have been following my blogs you are aware of the fact that I have been writing about the advantages of a flat or fair tax. I would like to refute the argument made by some (see-article by Douglas Dunn referred to earlier).
The main thrust seems to be that the tax will fall on the poor and middle class while benefiting the high income earners. An objection to this theory is that it does not really face the facts as we know them to be true. While the income tax is paid overwhelmingly by the upper earners, other taxes like social security, medicare, unemployment insurance (paid indirectly through your employer) are all paid primarily by the middle class. The objection that is raised does not hold sway. Very little, a negligible amount, is shifted. The problem is that the liberal left in this country always play the class warfare game. This is another example of such false thinking. We should look at what is good for the majority of us and not give in to class warfare. Who needs it. When measured against the many benefits derived from the flat or fair tax we can only come to one conclusion, pass the flat or fair tax. We deserve the control over what we pay. Please consider that many of the tea party and town hall protesters are inline with this flat or fair tax. In November vote out any politician who refuses to follow the wishes of the people.
Please continue to pray for our brave military.
GOD Bless
