9-9-9

9-9-9 is idiotic drool ...

Any sales tax that includes food and prescription drugs and other medical services (are services to be taxable too? -- They are also "sales") is totally regressive horseshit -- are rents also taxable? I didn't hear of stocks, bonds or other financial instruments and real estate transactions being taxable. How about capital gains? Would they be taxed at 9% instead of todays reduced rate of 15%?

Almost all mainstream politicians and economists discredit the 9-9-9 proposal.

I could support a fair flat tax even though it would cost me some money but this 9-9-9 is total bullshit.
