should inheirtance tax, property tax, income tax, excise tax, be repealed and in its place a national lottery?

Question

and perhaps a federal 1% sales tax?

Answer 1

that makes good sense as we are over taxed, and thats why this country was founded, to avoid paying the british taxes, while we must have some sort of a tax to run things, thats a good idea.

Answer 2

A national lottery would only replace a small portion of our tax revenue. A 1% sales tax would not be enough to fund the services that our government provides.

Answer 3

I say no to that. What we should do is have a FLAT TAX (relax, all you accountants out there, hate to see you lose your thefts...er I mean jobs).

5% straight across the board....you make a million a year you pay 5 %, you win the lottery you pay 5%, you make 100 you pay 5%, and so on!!

Answer 4

We had no nationwide Debt 9 years in the past. If my historic previous serves me a republican got here into place of work and adjusted all that. one hundred years in the past those issues did not exist. one hundred years in the past it develop into 1908 and Taft develop into President. properly remembered for his 4 years. i'm attempting to imagine of the time period that would want for use if the U. S. had maintained possession of all this infrastructure and owned the only percentage of an market. Darn - what's the option of free commerce and capitalism. In 1907 there develop into an journey said as the Panic of 1907, also ordinary because the 1907 Bankers' Panic. Sound favourite? My opinion is once you examine propaganda like this use that spark to examine the historic previous and search for information. Why develop into this worth posting? in my opinion posting and emails like this help to spread lack of understand-how.

Answer 5

I see what you are getting at but lets face it doesn't matter what its called we are all taxed to death....with so many money wasters in positions of power..we`ve all seen the growing clip board army at every big employer...hospitals factories etc...maybe if we got rid of some of the pen pushers we wouldn't need to be taxed so heavily..Maybe its time for less chiefs and more Indians...

Answer 6

I would like to see them repealed, and replaced but I'm afraid shortly you are going to see the taxes raised and tax cuts revoked.

Answer 7

Wow what a great idea,,, then the wealthiest would pay no taxes, and the poor and middle class would get to pay all of it.

Answer 8

someone is going to have to convince the Democrats that this will not affect their Social Programs they currently have the ones they hope to create with their socialist agenda. I am for anything that puts money in MY pocket.
