How would a consumption tax stop illegal activity? Do you think drug dealers and hookers would collect and pay the taxes on their sales? If the politicians ever got a consumption tax enacted, they would just re-enact the income tax later when they wanted to spend more. It's a farce. I think a flat tax with very limited deductions would be the most simple way to go.knc
