Yea bring this up when Tesla, Amazon, and Trump pay taxes.

The Fair Tax is the same tax rate for everyone. It's a form of sales tax.

Agreed, but different levels of prebate would promote certain lifestyles over others. Why not just make food tax-free for everyone?

There are not different levels of prebate. There is a prebate for every American. So if you are a family of four, your family gets four prebates.

Food is not the only necessity. In fact, did you know we can't even agree what "food" is?

We had a long topic about that and SNAP a few weeks ago.

True equality would be a flat annual tax for each citizen, not a flat rate. Pay your $1000 per year and you buy the opportunity to vote for people who spend said tax in ways you agree with.

There is no plan and if there is. It is a vast right wing conspiracy because taxes are voluntary.

$1000 times every man, woman, and child is only $320 billion.

Flat taxes are regressive.

Yeah, that's what Wesley Snipes thought.

Has there been, since Biden has been in office, a bill presented to roll back Trump tax cuts? Or to increase taxed on the rich? Or to implement a wealth tax?

Leftys always talk about these things but nobody ever seems to actually introduce levitation to start any of it. I want to see the left bring forward a stand alone bill to implement a wealth tax, or to tax unrealized capital gains, and don't bury it 500 pages deep in some other bill where it will go unnoticed. Let's get this bill as the headline, or a stand alone.

It never seems to happen. Kinda like banning guns, they always talk about it, but it never gets brought forward.

Of course. Blocked by Republicans and a Democrat or two of course. Try a real news outlet please... not propaganda. fabric

So we make an official designation in regards to what qualifies as food. I’d say it would be anything that goes in your mouth, sustains life, and goes out your butt.

I’ve always advocated that all Americans must pay Federal taxes. Every American has a vested interest in our nation, there’s zero reason no American should not take part in that process of keeping our nation going.

Even if it’s 0.01% of their income, it’s an active participation role.

Oh, hell, it's another wannabe's Proposals to Change 'Murika... not anything concrete with respect to taxation... wake me up when he serves-up details...

 

[JustAGuy1]

Obamacare is the GOP plan they always came up with to compete with single payer...

You get more stupid every day.

 

[Orangecat]

because taxes are voluntary

So is breathing. Try not doing either and see if there are any undesirable consequences.

Flat taxes are regressive.

So the government has to reduce spending to 320 billion. I don’t care for the “regressive” spin, tbh. We all have the same government, we should all pay the same amount to fund it.

 

[JustAGuy1]

the epitome of the hater dupe..... Change the channel and try reality...poor america...

Shut up pig, you hate everyone who dares challenge you. You're a weak ignorant fool.

 

[hadit]

More fact than you hear in a year on fox noise or your Internet nut jobs... Everything you know is wrong. 40 years of GOP giveaway to the rich and 30% of the country is brainwashed technically insane... change the channel.

Wow, still the same old crap. It hasn't changed in a very long time, and it's still as wrong as it ever was. Democrats are in charge and aren't going to give you what you want, but you're still going to vote for them. The very definition of a dupe.

You don't understand what regressive means then.

If you earn $20,000, then a $1000 tax is 5 percent of your income.

If you earn $100,000, then a $1000 tax is 1 percent of your income.

How is that fair to the poor in any way?

They spend $700 billion on defense alone.

Orangecat Maybe you are on to something It will also cut down on carbon dioxide. Perhaps the left can try it. They have the good ideas like taxes are voluntary.

Actually, it was the Libertarians who came up with the idea taxes are voluntary.
