Is anybody taking into account the massive economic upswing that will happen under the 999 plan as businesses getting a steady 9% corporate rate will rapidly expand; additionally paying the new 9% consumption tax in doing so, and create many thousands of new jobs in their company and the companies supporting their expansion.

This plan will also make domestic expansion more desirable than foreign expansion; another plus.

This is not a static situation. You cannot just look at the economic leader board and then translate that activity to Cain's plan. The playing field is going to be very dynamic.

P.S. To Buggy: You don't have to buy that car Buggy, and you only pay an income tax of 9%. You will have control over how much additional tax you pay by how much you consume or don't consume. Doesn't sound so bad now, does it.
