Subject: trade

Thank you for reviewing this where 1)I support your resistance to
'legalizing' 3mm illegal (I wager illiterate-or they wouldnt be in the
US,they would have prospered in their own nation) Mexicans who can't speak
or read their own, let alone English Language -rewarding their lack of
respect to perservere in their own country; 2)analysis regarding the
'free'trade/promotion fatal attraction: who is really benefitting from the
destruction of tariffs and duties-Constitutional taxes for our Republic.

PLEASE SLAY THIS BEAST AND OPPOSE'FREE TRADE FOR THE AMERICAS','TRADE
PROMOTION' BOONDOGLES -Corporate Management Pork- the FREE LOADERS BEHIND
THE FREE TRADE LIE. Their greed, Administration expedience,and your
colleagues will fight you over this treachery to our Republic and
Constitution and DEFRAUD US

Likewise, I support Senator Helms' block on Treasury nominations that may or
may not be linked with actually addressing the Administration's interest to
redefine/change export/import licenses that would violate the jobs
situation, fabric/garment industries in that state OR YOUR STATE, and more
likely abrogate the proper tarriffs and duties belonging to voters in our
nation. Further, after being among the private sector experts who reviewed
the drafts of Gramm, Leach, Bliley, I doubt holds on appointees Globalist
Paul O'Neill's Department would do harm to the government -rather- opposing
any of his nominations would SERVE THIS GOVERNMENT AND THE CITIZENS OF THIS
NATION.

I would have supported "Trade Promotion' /'Fast Track' and 'Free Trade for
the Americas' ACCEPT I began to analyze it. Taking the next step with
further due diligence, I found a book entitled North American Economic
Integration(1999) which exposed the conception of NAFTA.  During Warsaw
Pact's disintegration in the 90s, and Mexico's fear of competition from the
Developed economies partnering with the emerging economies of educated,
hungry Eastern Europe, Mexico's president proposed a trade agreement with
the US. Companies and managements with a Texas, etc/Mexican Border had
access to cheap Mexican labor. Next, hatchet those products' Constitutional
Tarriffs/ duties and pollution expenses while producing in a nation ignoring
pollution controls, and with low transport costs uniting a 'NAFTA' and Texan
management pork, these collectively have harmed the US economic and
maufacturing base-President George Bush c.1990.

The author exposes more (Pg12) US gov culpability with this:  "political
scientists also have reason to be uneasy about NAFTA (as an illustration).
They tend to view free trade agreements as a problematic issue for political
candidates irrespective of their ideological positions, ie, free trade is
usually seen by workers in developed countries as a threat to their economic
security, especially during periods of stagnating wages and massive
restructuring 'downsizing' as was in the case in the early 1990s" (that
recession was caused by a Democrat-lead Congress and Reagan's 1986 Tax Act,
which contributed to the thrift and bank 'crisis'. Big Business took
advantage in the recession to conduct restructuring and charge the these
expenses during a time when corporations were already reporting lower
profits). "Nonetheless, firms (management?) especially those in high-tech,
export-oriented industries (where management's bonuses include options they
exercise with rising stock prices), tend to support freer trade and through
lobbyists, wield considerable influence with political candidates, hence,
politicians may well lose voter support if they support 'free trade' and
lose campaign funding if they oppose it - a classic 'no win' situation.
Nevertheless, some political scientists looking at (foreign relations) which
have fluctuated widely in recent decades use (these agreements) a tool for
'normalizing' the channels of<> discussion<> on a wide range of economic and
political issues..."

In an innocuous, yet revealing way, the author exposes the heart of the
matter...that MANAGEMENT WANTS FREE TRADE TO SUIT THEIR OWN POCKETS,
regardless of their employees, OF OUR CONSTITUTION, AND ECONOMIC BASE, while
YOU - our elected officials want the lobbyists' wielding campaign
contributions from corporate management looking to line its own pockets
profiting from THIS FRAUD. THE TRUTH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH 'DEMOCRACY',
WHICH THEY HAVE TERMED TO BE SOMETHING FRIGHTINGLY LESS THAN THE FRAMERS OF
OUR GOVERNMENT BELIEVED THAT WORD TO MEAN AND FOUGHT TWO WARS TO ESTABLISH
IN THIS CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.

The ultimate waste of taxpayer money into management hands with much 'Free
Trade' and the difference between our government gathering Constitutional
taxes such as Tarriffs, rather than having the Executive Branch take fruits
of our labor with wage/salary/ and similar taxes, I would rather pay the
tarriffs to have back my salary, bonus, and returns from investments
untaxed. THE VERY END OF THIS BECOMES THE END OF THE REPUBLIC AND OUR
CONSTITUTION. IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT? YOU SHOULD BE MORE PUBLIC ABOUT IT. THE
MORE YOU HARM THIS REPUBLIC, THE MORE YOU DESTROY YOURSELVES. The insolence
of Corporate America and what you have done in Washington is so evident;
globalist corporate management does not - DO YOU? AND THEY DON'T REALLY CARE
ABOUT THE REST OF THE WORLD, or they would conduct themselves differently
abroad. EXPORTING 'DEMOCRACY' IS THEIR LIE TO HAVE YOU DEFRAUD US.

And, supporting 'Trade Promotion' formerly known as 'fast track', proposed
during the Clinton Administration (and as well as related 'trade' efforts
such a NAFTA'S new Gorgon Medusa sister "Free Trade for the Americas")
violate the system of checks and balances between the Executive and
Legislative banches originally established in our government. Given the
corruption experienced during and resulting from the previous administration
and how it and Congress interacted, we must eschew every Clintonian or
'shadow government' agenda which attempts and would disrupt our governmental
system of Checks and Balances.

Have concern when Alan Greenspan, Colin Powell, and Charlene Barshefsky
support Trade Promotion/Fast Track - and the umbrella Big Daddy - "Free
Trade" - trade treachery and corporate management pork/welfare when one
realizes the intentions of WHO BENEFITS.  Although Ms. Barshefsky, Mr.
Powell and Mr. Greenspan represent different constituecies, all share their
membership in the "Shadow Government" and support corporate and special
interests over those of the US electorate and the Constitution, and were not
and are not subject to direct control by Congress and real scrutiny of
voting citizens and Taxpayers.

Paul O'Neill verbalized their agenda to the Financial Times, a London based
daily financial newspaper - in its Saturday edition (ENDNOTe 1). Perhaps
O'Neill thought only globalistic readers and the leaders who believe his
comments are ambitious FT Week-end readers. Treas Secrty O'Neill said that
he wants to eliminate corporate income taxes, that the individual taxpayer
would shoulder the heavier tax burden, the individual taxpayer now pays 80%
up from 60% 20 years ago of 'income' taxes to the US government, and that
able-bodied elderly can or should or would have to continue to work - as if
in an adjustment to the current social security system. This is largely the
shared agenda of Ms.Barshefsky, Mr. Greenspan, who calls us all 'consumers'
yet frets over the low savings rate. WHAT IS HIS AGENDA?

Even Ms. Barshefsky and President Bush agree that trade 'endeavors' often
are a form of diplomacy, and at a future point may become some sort of entry
to treaties. This is actually a VERY backward way to conduct US State
Affairs and Foreign Policy, as well as ignoring that Senate ratifies
treaties, these which likewise it also negotiates.

Permitting the Executive Branch, where only the President is elected once
every four years - this is THE TRADE PROMOTION PLOY - to develop trade and
trade agreements, export licenses, and other USGov activities with foreign
nations and NGOs without any step-by-step oversight by our Legislative
Branch-people who we elect every 2, 4 years, primarily exhibits a group of
people very absorbed with their ends and desirous of its own agenda without
oversight, rather than respect checks, balances, and responsibilities left
us in word and THEME of the ideals/principles embodied in and Amendments of
the U.S.
Constitution (ENDNOTE 2- LOCKHEED MARTIN is on a separate email).

The Shadow Government via this 'Trade Promotion' ambition of the Executive
Branch, tinkering with Checks and Balances in our formal government at this
point displays its insolence and disservice to the US and the institutions
of this Republic. The Executive Branch and the Shadow Government practice
expedience - easily accessed by Corporate Management and management soft
money campaign contributions directed to the parties, as well as its
aggressive self-serving desire to shake the American Taxpayer and
Shareholder Money Tree --when the Executive Branch permits this to happen.


Ms. Barshefsky and perhaps, President Bush, support 'trade promotion' for
quid pro quo purposes to corporate management; Ms. Barshefsky wants
corporate business, and VOLUMES of CORPORATE MANAGEMENT CAMPAIGN SOFT MONEY
(VIA LOBBYISTS?) CONTRIBUTIONS SLUCED INTO President Bush's campaign. Follow
the money - one eventually finds the hidden but true benefactors in the
situation. Corporate Management becomes the true benefactor of 'trade
promotion','fast track' and 'Free Trade' each propoganda inspired misnomers
to hide the truth, and management contrived gov tools to conduct GLOBALISM
and FRAUD AGAINST US, and our individual and national wealth.

And so, as "Free Trade" or aptly named, FRAUD TRADE, sums from the
following: Executive Branch catering to and having been recipients of greed
driven stock-option-exercising, obsessed-management-making soft money
campaign contributions lobbying for 'free trade'/'trade promoton' to
decrease the manufacturing costs to achieve a more expidient end than
manufacturing cheaper goods and eliminating the import tarriffs produces.

SHAMELESSLY USING OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS WITH THIS CAREFULLY CONTRIVED LIE
THAT promoting 'trade promotion' and 'free trade' are what is right and good
for the country and that opposing the fatal attraction of 'Free Trade' is
'protectionist' after one understands the management and executive branch
tactic used to deceive US to actually support this treachery, which as I
previously stated - actually institutionalizing the corporate pork of
protecting inefficient industries by cheapening the labor and
commodity/rawmaterial costs/expenses rather than actually facilitating
management making essential capital reinvestment for paradigm changing
technological advancement in their respective industries. Managements in
these industries that prefer "Free Trade" over re-investing in their
businesses and US employees in the US reveal their inferior conduct and
practice managing their companies.

So, the crafty and seductive "Free Trade" flag-bearing managements of those
inefficient companies are actually saying to us that they are not interested
in investing in true technological advancement to make their industries more
efficient, or that if they didn't do some desperate act to reduce operating
costs, they would be bait for acquisition by a larger or more efficient
competitor, and that in reality, as hidebound management, they are so
unresourceful and uncreative that they would abuse non-US citizens to keep
their inefficient companies alive and line their own pockets with the blood
and sweat of foreign citizens who will never see options to exercise let
alone perhaps even a decent education for themselves or their children,
while share prices move higher on the market perception of smoke and mirrors
of short term profits.

'Free Trade' and its off-spring, thus are management pork and support more
management dinosaurs than any subsidized industry.  Free Trade does not
benefit US citizens with lower prices, as management for themselves pockets
the savings from: not having to pay duties and Constitutional tarriffs
accompanying the imports, avoiding the higher US wage levels, where with
'free trade' the intermediary processes of US off-shore manufacturing enters
without the cost savings passing to end prices. 'Free trade' is to enrich
management with the difference saved by eliminating tarriffs and duties
while avoiding issues such as labor problems and commodities with
environmental impact concerns.

Another fantastic kudo for 'free trade' and supposedly 'trade promotion'
also declares that it 'exports our democracy'. Trade promotion no more
exports our democracy than does exporting garbage and sewage for dumping.
Further, the countries to which we alledgely are 'exporting our
democracy'are corrupt,authoritarian/ totalitarian (fascist or communist),
sectarian, class-stratified societies with national religions, whose people
remain in virtually the same deplorable condition as they were 50 years
ago,when many were under their former dictator or colonial powers and/or
controlled by Roman Catholism or some other national religion or national
church.

This revisits another reason for the half-nelson propoganda to push 'free
trade': many of the countries with which we are practicing 'free trade' are
former colonies of developed nations and our corporations are merely
replacing the former colonial powers that extracted resources and exploited
the remoteness and underdevelopment of those regions and societies. In a de
facto way, it puts money back into the hands of our allies by 'trading' and
doing business in their former colonies. Our presense in these regions
acutally more destabilizes that stabilizes due to the instability and
corruption in those rule of man governments combined with the nature of the
'development' in those former colonies: they had their own cultural
development disrupted by European colonialism, and then again disrupted
differently by US Corporate colonialism.

Results from today's corporate welfare in the US and its int'l version in
the manner of US corporate colonialism (ie, "exporting our democracy"-
siting abroad to lower labor and commodities expenses to give short term
boosts to operating revenues) in underdeveloped regions include: civil wars
which arise over strife from valuable commodities or water. Thieves armed
and funded by corporate interests disrupt people who farm their land in
these rural regions to relocate themselves elsewhere, leaving the valuable
commodities for exploitation by financial backers of the armed guerillas (or

conducted through an 'Iran-Contra' strategy). The span of examples finds
Africa on the extreme end, with Latin South America on the other, as well as
the PRC included. It uses a more creative form of control and
destructiveness, however, against its people moving in unsanctioned forms of
liberty and against the interests of that corrupt totalitarian regime.(I
opposed PNTR and the plane incident and the deals to securitize the sour
loans of its corrupt, failed banks continues to vindicate my assessment of
capriciousness and tyranny of that absurd, wasteful, and irrational
government. It is worse, however when my government acts as foolish as that
of the PRC's.)

'Free Trade' and 'Trade Promotion' fosters neither education nor  eliminates
sectarianism promoting national religions or national churches, as the lack
of institutionalized education and sectarianism created by a national
religion or national church that controls the country stifles how a nation
and its citizens would flourish.  What fosters education, liberty, and the
broad-based accumulation of wealth is upholding the model largely
demonstrated in the United States routed in the Judeo-Christian/'Protestant'
work ethic, and originating with Plato and adopted by the Romans, where we
flourish because we were and are a largely non-class stratified, largely
egalitarian, non-sectarian society, without a national church or national
religion that would have enfranchised one sect or group over another and
hindered life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Using the founding model of the US unfortunately infrequently accompanies
trade. As promoting education and eliminating the national church or
national religionan facilitates 'class movement'in non- totalitarian
societies are painted as 'moralistic', or some similiarly absurd slam, what
really promotes liberty is the model in which we were founded - THIS IS THE
HEART OF PERMANENT PROSPERITY: copy our founding model with all of its high
ideals (excluding slavery and discrimination, of course) and that will
promote life, liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. Free Trade with
anything other than a Western Nation and Canada, becomes the Globalist
version of the "Great Society" for the rest of the world, which did not work

in the States, and likewise will not work in vulnerable areas abroad.

Historical lessons such as the Johnson era, think-tank/social utopianistic
inspired Great Society exemplify this very sort of strategy on vulnerable
and forming cultures: remove jobs from a 1culture, in the way jobs were
removed from US  urban environments, and throw in money, free or wit few
strings, and after adding a with a few other social pressures - that society
will decay, as did our urban societies.

The management funded think tanks in this era, strategized that if the
corporations remove US jobs and site off-shore without any sort of
responsible labor framework, and move those former US jobs into cultures
with corrupt governments and without some sort of system of values by which
it respects its citizens other than for tax moneys and votes to remain in
control, the US corporate managements cut cozy deals with corrupt government
officials in those countries, agree to pay kickbacks and bribes (or give
them shares) to the corrupt govermental officials in those countries, and
pay slave wages to the citizens. The bribes are small enough and hidden well
enough to elude accounting forensics and considered part of doing business
abroad, in the short run reduce labor expenses and the raw material prices.
The management funded Think Tanks have then facilitated the 'free trade'
strategy, and in part are behind the cultural and intellectual
stratification of our current society as well as the problems in Developing
and Third World.

Think tank <utopianistic> propoganda also promotes the jobs=identity
mentality and partner with the press and other institutions in our society
to foster and validate a common mentality absorbed with consuming, rather
than the mentality of the thrifty, self reliant, intrepid citizens from
whose legacies we flourish. If one has a job to enable one to consume more,
that makes one morally superior than others whose jobs hinder them from
consuming, and this is the same mentality that partners with the trade
arguement that 'trade exports our democracy' and that we are helping to feed
a 'starving' world and to help save the US farmer, etc... these are all
carefully contrived lies partnered with useful manipulating media
propoganda.

Any decent citizen should oppose not only 'free trade' but begin boycotting
products of many US manufacturers siting abroad and undermining our society
and our ecomony. Actually, practicing Patria Patriae and ending or
curtailing trade with corrupt governments will encourage these quickly to
avoid rule of man politics, cozy deals with neopotistic inbred wealth in
those corrupt countries in bed with those corrupt governments, and
sectariansim that disrupts economic flows and hinders education of the
children, and that which would enable the  people to cast and informed vote
- WHICH WOULD PROMOTE LIBERTY AND DEMOCRACY AS WE PRACTICED IT IN THE US.
STOPPING TRADE AND ELIMINATING MONEY INTO CORRUPT GOVERNMENTS EVENTUALLY
PROMOTES AND EXPORTS OUR high ideals=democracy to those nations.  HIGH
IDEALS DO NOT PARTNER WITH NOR ENGAGE IN ANY SORT OF ACTIVITIES SUCH AS
CORRUPTION, DESTRUCTIVENESS, AND TYRRANY. If our government eschews these
corrupt, cozy leaders sleeping with monied families in their countries and
elsewhere, these governments will improve.

These corrupt governments and US Corporate managements want to shake the
money tree - the "rich" US Taxpayer. SPARE THE ROD AND SPOIL THE CHILD. If
these under developed governments and their economies are
children,rewarding bad behavior such as that would proliforate an unlearned,
ignorant citizenry, class stratified and its reinforcement, sectarianism,
especially as practiced in the Bulkans and Macedonia. (I indicated while
settling Kosovo, eliminate the national religion in that region, and deal
similarly with Serbia.) Eliminating the national religion removes the reason
for the sectarianism that counts on enfranchisement from the government, and
when the laws and rule of law support some sort of non-sectarianism in the
way our Constitution does not support any national religion or national
church, the economy and society will flourish peacefully.

Having practiced some critical thinking on 'free trade' - it does not really
promote life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in the 'developing' and
'third world' societies as many of those citizens do not have or have little
access to education and where the lack of societal and functional
governmental development in those societies, when engaged in 'trade' do more
harm than good to the people as it is like throwing gasoline on a fire. The
'free trade' supporters would have us believe otherwise and defraud us.

In the Short Run, cheaper production factor imputs (lower wages and
commodities achieved from 'free trade) via importation do not mean long term
improvements in price or volume, but fill management's pockets with
expediently gained 'cost saves', etc, and facilitate the arm twisting
arguement for, in reality, 'fraud trade'. Industry subsized by 'free trade'
avoids essential capital re-investment for true paradigm changing
technological advancement, the only factor input that in the long run lowers
price for the same volume or increases volume for the same price.

And addressing the 'isolationism' issues, any person blathering that during
the 20's, the trade policies made by those administrations became reasons
behind the market crash and subsequent 'Great Depression' either expose
their ignorance of history or are propogandists for corporate management's
pork and globalism: the 1929 'Crash' was caused when banks had to raise
money for liquidity purposes while our Federal Reserve was lending money to
the UK and draining needed liquidity from our economy. Banks began making
margin calls to obtain funds and issued margin calls, forcing those owning
shares on margin to SELL their shares to raise the money to pay the margin
call, thus provide some sort of liquidity for the banks. The 'Great
Depression' began during the Roosevelt Administration and was caused when
Roosevelt closed all banks on the Bank Holiday, and chose only those he and
his advisors wished to reopen, which excluded many rural and non-Federal
Reserve member banks, so as to purposely destabalize the econony and
facilitate the environment where he would institute his huge social programs
into the Executive Branch.  The previous decade's trade laws actually were
the reason Roosevelt and the Shadow government powers in concert with him
wanted the Great Depression, to concentrate power in the government and
existing large corporations and the developing cozy, self-serving,
self-enriching relationship with the Executive Branch, where only the
President is elected.

Now the government, in 'search' to meet its budget shortfall, will hunt for
the these funds from taxpayers. As option owners on future shares of their
companies, and with the promise of substantial wealth that those options and
future share prices entail - an end sought at any and every  cost, Corporate
Management had contributed grandly to campaigns, meanwhile defrauding
taxpayers and shareholders with opposing 'free trade'= 'isolationism',
slandering of those wanting and practising cautious and prudent trade
conduct, DE-EMPHASIZING trade in relation to DIPLOMACY.

Patria Patriae promotes diplomacy over commerce. The framers of our
government believed Diplomacy came before and was more important than
Commerce. In circumstances such as relations with the PRC, a country that
does not work by or follow agreements, corporate managements, think tanks
and foreign and other interests demean prudent, any US circumspectness with
foreign constiuents as 'ISOLATONISIM'when it is PRUDENT to avoid extensive
commerce with nations such as the PRC: not a rule of law nation, which is
using the US merely as a manner to develop itself and eventually in its mad
imperialist ambition to laud itself and its system as being superior to ours
and the west, which the PRC hates.  Any US legislator who went on 'high
stakes' trade missions to the PRC and other communist countries  - Viet
Nam,and where those corrupt totalitarian Governments fully knew and prepared
and may even have done 'remote viewing' or remote versions of mind control
to-for US legislators' visits, and when our elected officials traveled and
met 1. government permitted local entrepreneurs who had to pay bribes to PRC

officials, 2. were going to be objects of strong, fierce propoganda, to be
used as tools to pursuade the rest of Congress, US commercial interests, and
US, partnering with the former expedient Administration that had received
money from ChineseGenerals.

Our elected officials have conducted treachery against the American people
when they were deluded into believing that we have to 'help'those
entrepenuers by trading with their totalitarian government to the harm to
our own, and while those deserving 'entrepreneurs'would and should
eventually flee that tyrrany which we recklessly and foolishly support with
trade. So the Executive Branch and Legislative Branch - the White House and
Congress, are disserving the American people by supporting activities that
are harming our national wealth and prestige, deceiving us that trade
exports our 'democracy' when all it is doing is lowering the labor expenses
to enrich American and foreign management, and pretending that cheaper goods
is putting money back into our pockets while we are taxed with 1. higher
taxes 2. marginal, a trend towards lower paying service sector jobs (for
unskilled and marginally skilled people) that proliferate after what had
been better manufacturing jobs relocating abroad.

Whether one names it Internationalism or Globalism, the 'free trade' fatal
attraction it is largely for lining managements' pockets, the Taxpayer is
disserved and 'Trade Promotion' becomes the Executive branch's self-serving
affair with the management money and think tanks that put the Administration
in the White House and ELECTED OFFICIALS into the Legislative Branch. Thank
you for your attention and for opposing the 'free trade' fatal attraction.

IF YOU SUPPORT THIS, THE BLOOD OF THE DEATH WHAT YOUR ARE DOING TO THE
CONSTITUTION AND OUR REPUBLIC IS ON YOUR HANDS. FIGHT THE WHITE HOUSE AND
THIS CORRUPTION THEY ARE DOING ON BEHALF OF GREED MINDED CORPORATE
MANAGEMENT - THE FREE LOADERS USING THEIR FAVORITE LIE - FREE TRADE.

1) FT Weekend/Financial Times O'Neill lays out radical vision
By Amity Shlaes in Washington  May 18 2001 18:28GMT

Paul O'Neill, US Treasury Secretary, has laid out a vision for a radical
reform of the US tax structure, including a sweeping revision of the Social
Security - or public pension - system and abolition of corporate income
taxand capital gains tax on businesses. In an interview with the FT at his
Treasury office, Mr O'Neill espoused  changes that would reach far beyond
the legislation currently before Congress.  As the Senate moved ahead with
the Bush administration's initial $1,350bn tax reduction plan, which Mr
O'Neill expects to be signed into law next Friday, he expanded on his
previous piece meal attacks on America's tax system.  The present system was
"an abomination" that required changes to its "very structure".

" Not only am I committed to working on this issue, the President [George W
Bush] is also intrigued about the possibility of fixing this mess," said Mr
O' Neill.  One of the most important moves, he suggested, would be abolition
of taxation on companies. Corporate income tax, the main form of tax on US
businesses, accounts for 10 per cent of federal revenues and has a top rate
of 35 per cent.

Among other controversial ideas, Mr O'Neill questioned the guarantees the
government provides for full public subsidy of senior citizens' health care
and retirement programmes. "Able-bodied adults who have the ability to earn
income have an obligation not to pass part of their own responsibility on to
a broader population," he said.  His remarks are bound to reverberate in
Washington, where speaking about reductions in elderly care programmes has
been taboo. Mr O'Neill's  remarks reflect growing determination in the Bush
administration to show its willingness to propose radical change to try to
secure growth. (this isn't going to in the long run, do right by our economy

and our citizens) Abolishing corporate tax would inevitably lead to higher
personal income taxes, but Mr O'Neill believes such a move would reduce the
overall tax burden and promote economic growth. Current corporate tax levels
- and their administrative costs - were too high, he said. The system would
work better if the government  "collected taxes in a more direct way from
the
people, who were paying the taxes in any event"....
