An increased tax on everything we buy, with the removal of the income taxes. This way the less you spend/buy, the less you're taxed. Also, people like Bill Gates who make say 200,000$ a year on their salary can't avoid the taxes any more.
Go. |

Sure taxes on items would go up, but if you're not a big spender then you don't get taxed as much.
How would you suggest we deal with the Rich avoiding taxes? The rich don't make simply what their salary says. They get stocks, benefits, paid cars, all sources of income that aren't taxed. A user tax would deal with this. |
