That worked so well for this administration so why not?I could vote for Cain, but I think some of his ideas are unrealistic. 9-9-9 being one of them.
But why? WHY is it unrealistic? Because some say it can't be done? People once said it was impossible to sail around the world, to fly, to receive voices or pictures through a wire, to fit a computer into single room, let alone into the palm of your hand. It was once believed that people are incapable of governing themselves or a Constitution such as is enjoyed in America was not possible.
I don't accept that we can't stop the runaway trainwreck that our federal government has become, that there is no better way to do tax policy, I don't accept that the federal government can't be reformed, that we are incapable of doing things differently and better.
I don't know whether 9-9-9 will work, but I do know that Herman Cain is a master mathematician and probably has a good grasp on the numbers. That alone means we should give it an honest hearing before we reject it as 'impractical'.
No one is saying government can't be reformed or shouldn't be reformed. But you are advocating doing what many "conservatives" claim to hate about liberals. You are advocating change for the sake of change. You even admit you don't know if the plan will work! Why throw out the system in place and replace with something that could be worse?
As for the claim Cain is a "master mathematician", if he is, why has he so far released exactly ZERO numbers behind his plan? Why has he released ZERO support and evidence?
Let me guess, we need to elect him to see what's in the plan.
The fact remains that you have to have a plan from which you can build something that CAN work. His plan is just that. A base to build from. Unlike Obama who just throws around money all Willy nilly hoping something will stick and work. At least Cain has a plan. All Obama ever offers are.....
New taxes
New fees
New regulations
And scapegoats as to why his non plan plan doesn't work. Just last week he blamed the American people. He is a bonified idiot. All that shit he offers looks great on paper but when you try to implement it into action it fails miserably. Just like his whole presidency.
Tax, tax, tax, rich people, corporate jets, atms, mother nature,
Wallstreet, hurricanes, airport kiosks, republicans, tea party, Europe, etc, etc
He has 0 concept of accountability
