if it were at all possible, (im not speaking as a realist but as an idealist) would anyone like this kind of tax set up.
dont not tax paychecks but allow everyone to keep all the money they make and then make up the difference by taxing items. (higher sales tax) items that are necessaties get low taxation or no taxation like food, car matenance, diapers, medicine, and so on and then items of luxury would get higher taxes like realy expensive cars, yachts, homes two-three times the size of the family that lives there. and then the in the middle items recieved an average tax percentage.
the benifits would be no illegal aliens could get out of paying taxes
the rich would technically be paying more taxes for buying more luxorious items but they wouldn’t be forced to buy those items, it would still be a matter of choice
the poor would pay less taxes but would still pay taxes
then the money would go first to the city and from the city it could go to the state and from the state it would go to our nation.
the point would be to give the city the most money and then the state the second most and then the government 3 most.
just like each cell in the body works as a single organisim I think the goverment would function better that way if we worked together on a small scale
some might ask, what happens to the rich peoples money that doesn’t get spent but sits in the bank…glad you asked (jk)
the rich will keep their money in banks and the banks would be required to give higher returns to those people who keep money in a savings account and then the goverment would get a percentage of the profit the banks and the rich people make for leaving the money in the bank.
this way whatever money is not being spent the goverment still profits from.
obviously you know whenever rich people stop spending money we go into a depression because the majority of the money out there is not in circulation
also, I think companies should be required to give their workers fair wages. this could be done by assesing a companies worth and paying everyone according to company profits.
basically the government would say if your company is making a high profit and your still paying your lower end workers nothing and keeping all the profit yourself we are going to raise your property tax and other taxes because you are making a society that will make the goverment be responsible for more people who aren’t getting paid fairly.
that not to say that companies who are poor cant still pay their employees less, until they grow.
anyway…its only an idea, im sure there are some holes in it, just like there are holes in every idea it seems weve come across, but what do you think???
what would you change???
Yes, Im strongly in favor of eliminating the IRS in exchange for a national sales tax. Then deadbeats who don’t file, and cheats who make income but don’t report, will be contributing to the federal revenue system.
