Mill closing

[Bibbyman]

In these boxes,  a tax payer would put what percent of their taxes owed would go to what category - lets say in 10% increments - to total 100%

No Ron,  under my plan, everyone would pay 100% of what they owed - (however it was calculated).  Just that the tax payer would decide to what use it was going to be put.

I think Bib has a great idea. Enforcing the appropriate allocations would be the only job of the IRS, as opposed to the confiscation they are in charge of now.

A flat tax where each of us pays the same, or a consumption tax is the only fair taxation, in my opinion. At least with a consumption tax I get to choose whether or not I want to pay the tax. "How badly do I really need that new car?"  Punishing those who excel by increasing their tax rates is very counterproductive. Makes one wonder way too often why in the world they try so hard, when the government just takes a bigger share. You lose the desire to try harder when you are punished for it.

Ok, I'll step off my box for now...I just had to get that off my chest.
