    Hear Hear; QQQBALL for Treasury Secretary.

    I actually believe that ONLY the lowest economic group should be taxed. They produce nothing and consume resources at a tremendous rate. IMHO

    Thought I'd get a response like that. That's ok though. I'm coming from an economic perspective here. I realize there would be social issues. A world class economist made this same argument several years back. I can't recall his name but he made his point quite well. Long before the PC police made common sense and truth forbidden.

    I'd like to see regressive taxes. Basically, everybody pays exactly the same amount of money (a fee, not a precentage) to the feds. :D Then, you get to keep all of each and every extra dollar you make.
