Money, etc., reform and a digital visual library have been combined in the current text at www.tiea.us Comment will be appreciated.
The President yesterday endorsed an end to income tax in favor of a progressive consumption tax -- a sales tax of 20% with food and medicine exempt and a cash compensatory check to all who earn less than can afford the tax. The plan for this kind of a consumption tax to replace the incomprehensible income tax and to come close to a citizens dividend for people who ought to receive one has been around for years. This is the first time it has received Presidential endorsement -- although the change will be opposed by those who sell loopholes (lawmakers and lobbyists) and those who do taxes for money (accountants, tax preparers). Look for the change in ten years. My news came from NBC TV and it may be more than is posted to the Whitehouse site -- which I have not checked.
