    p.s. if you cannot answer the two questions above correctly, please stay away from the poles tomorrow
    but dont forget to make things happen that impact us more directly it starts with city council people, mayor, school boards and so forth. oh, and most def the local county tax commissioner!!! you wanna pay less taxes if you own a home? it all starts with the aforementioned people.i would prefer a fair tax, under 24k/yr, no tax and everyone else 18-21% however it works out. no penalty for making more money if you wanna try to make more or get a raise and no impact like the fair tax on purchased goods that could give an easier cause for the gov't to also crash due to possible recession like no and everyone tries to save more! as always

    you obviously have no idea what the fair tax is. please read this book.
    (ps. i have a copy if you need to borrow it before you go to the poll's tomorrow)

    Under the fair tax it will not matter how much a person makes per year. If you make 80K per year, you keep 80K per year. Under the fair tax you get taxed on how much you SPEND, not how much you MAKE!

    easy big boy!! i want the flat tax personally, the fair tax would fluctuate to much on spending and go up and down like the stock market. sorry i got the 2 mixed up.

    and you're right most professors would prefer the opposite of your opinion but i went to the citadel so i didnt have the 'normal' college experience during the week

    sorry lol! this is a very sensitive topic to me.

    I am a poor college student, but..... my parents happen to be high-achievers (which I will be soon). I am all-for less taxes on the rich, woops i mean HIGH ACHIEVERS! it's all good.


    edit:
    i am not biased.... the fair tax or the flat tax would be great if we could ever get it enacted.

    as much as i would like to see it, it will never happen. too easy to figure out what money goes where and then everyone starts asking questions about what really goes to area 51 and all that other stuff, just my take, but maybe we would never know and all that stuff would still be hidden in military budgets and stuff

    never say never. I don't see a simple tax system happening anytime soon but, I hope to see some change within my lifetime.

    edit: although, 9 months from now we will know if we are moving towards or farther away from a simple tax plan.
