IMNSHO, we will grow the economy more if we let the less affluent
buy more ...

GOOD punchline.g
(On the off chance that you're serious, what's your logic there?
How do the poor buy more?)

Getting more spending power into the hands of the less affluent
will
lead to more purchasing of manufactured goods (my opinion).

Do you have any good ideas as to how to accomplish that? I'd love
it!

Good! Same as above: We would be even richer as a nation if the
resulting wealth was spread out more evenly, not going to
corporations
and really rich people who can afford to stash it abroad.


Sets see here Han do you want to share your wealth with me? Probably
not. Corporations which are made up of people and create jobs for
people should not be taxed at all. We don't want to bite the hand that
feeds us.

Right, but also note that those corporations don't pay tax anyway.
It's a
cost of doing business and necessarily gets passed onto the
consumer. Might
just as well put the tax there. It's more efficient, if nothing else.


Right! Corporations don't pay taxes its customers do.

So do I mark you down in the "Supports Fair Tax" column? ;-)

How wold you like me to answer that? ;~)

Ultimately I think every one should pay equally for services that they
are getting. Like going to the store and buying a new TV or going to a
base ball game, no discounts or price hikes for income level or personal
wealth.

That gets more difficult for things like utilities and national defense.
Would you care to see the Smithsonian Institution shut down because it
couldn't "make it" based on the dollars it gets from admission? I'm
just talking...I know where you are coming from (too).

So each pays $1/year to keep the SI's doors open. There is a point to
libraries.
