The main thing about the 9% national sales tax that I like is that it flushes out the underground economy. Gang Banger want to buy a new $500 pair of sneakers with drug money, FINALLY they get in the tax base etc.
I hope Herman Cain doesn't bow to those who want him to eliminate it. It is an important part of the plan.
Herman Cain wil have my Florida Primary Vote.

I believe the point here, is that the national sales tax will NOT replace the state sales tax. Therefore, sales tax will be in the double digits for most folks. Cain does not dispute this fact....
As I remember from the most recent debate, he called his 9% ORANGES and the individual state taxes APPLES.
Maybe I misunderstood . . .
