Shrugs......the birther fantasy just gets more and more emotional. And less and less plausible.
Pity you weren't able to read His book - "Dreams FROM My Father". Maybe you could find an adult who wouldn't mind sounding out the words for you!
The Russians adopted a flat 13% rate. It's been plenty.15% flat tax for everyone - for income, dividends, and capital gains. Get rid of SS and medicare taxes. No deductions. No tax credits. No complicated tax code. No favors for Big Government Cronies. No politicized IRS.
Period.
agree, but 15% is probably too low, maybe 17% or 18%, and it should apply to all income, from $1 to the maximum income of any american, no exemptions, no deductions, ALL income.
15% is not too low. If anything, it might be too high. Once the federal apparatus used to redistribute income is removed, the cost of government will drop. Add to that the economic growth that will arise from tax simplification...and overall tax receipts should increase, although they will be a lower ratio of the economy.
I hope you are right, but history says otherwise.
History shows the government debasing currency, taking on excessive debt, and funneling money to its cronies. Unless we remove the opportunities for graft, then the problem will continue.
Proof?15% flat tax for everyone - for income, dividends, and capital gains. Get rid of SS and medicare taxes. No deductions. No tax credits. No complicated tax code. No favors for Big Government Cronies. No politicized IRS.
Period.
That probably wouldn't cover our tax needs.

Lower rates reduce incentives to cheat, use loopholes or otherwise engage in behavior that reduces both revenue to the government and output to the economy.
Yes. You are an idiot of the first order. You cannot deny that Russia, which spends plenty of money, has benefitted by adopting a flat tax lower than the one proposed here. You merely deflect to irrelevance. Because you're stupid. Oops, look! Squirrel!The Russians adopted a flat 13% rate.

What is it with our little Pravda that modern conservatives have become. Its almost fawning hero worship of Russia, and loathing of the United States. With our conservatives siding with Russia on everything from their treatment of minorities, their criminalization of gays, their military invasions.....and now their tax system.
Anything you want to tell us, comrade?

Like it will matter. You don't read. But for those who do:
Ted Cruz s flat tax couldn t even work in your imagination - The Washington Post
And where in his book did he talk about how learning from his father a 100% tax rate?
Because I'm pretty sure you made that shit up.
But again, I'm speaking to a birther. Batshit comes with the territory.

Here is a tool to allow you to answer your own question. I do hope you can figure out how to use it.
How Obama Thinks - Forbes
Sep 9, 2010 ... Notice that his title is not Dreams of My Father but rather Dreams from ... is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income so ...

Perhaps there is somebody at the public library where you blog who can help you if the challenge is too great......they generally don't expect tips.
And where in the book does it say that Obama learned a 100% tax rate from his father?
Name the page. I've a PDF of the book right here. I'll check to see if you're right.

Your inability to read is not my concern.
Pity there are no adults around to assist.
Maybe tomorrow?
Your link is dead. So there's nothing to read. You haven't cited Obama on a '100% tax rate'. You haven't cited his book.
You've cited yourself. And you're nobody.
Try again. This time with the actual quote and the actual page number.
And now everyone pays income tax from the lowest worker to the highest – they just pay a higher percentage if they are at the bottom and do not make capital gains.NO IT SHOULD NOT, and it has NEVER in the History of the USA been that way....Tax rate oughta be such that everybody has skin in the game. So that everybody pays income tax whether employed or not. All at the same rate. That way nobody gets a free ride; everybody feels it when their elected representatives try to grab more. Within two election cycles the whole outlook of government would change.
When Income tax began, the income tax Standard Deduction was the equivalent of $65,000....in today's dollars. MOST Americans DID NOT have to pay any income tax.... it was only those with the MEANS to pay income tax that had to pay income tax....otherwise, it was thought of as INHUMANE.

The thing is, a 15% flat rate is impossible....right now our payroll taxes and employer matches on social Security and Medicare is over 15% and that's without paying for a single thing other than Social Security and Medicare, and doesn't even pay for the pill bill part of Medicare.I second this post.15% flat tax for everyone - for income, dividends, and capital gains.

You want tax simplification?
Make it a flat progressive tax with no itemized deductions, only the same Standard deduction for everyone...you can lower the tax rates on all brackets.
