. . . they might say something like this . . .
#1 – The U.S. Government has been enforcing an unfunded mandate on
American
taxpayers and businesses of $500 BILLION per year. This
amount DOES NOT go to
the Federal Government as taxes and represents a
total drain on the U.S.
economy. This amount also represents a figure
approximately 4 TIMES greater
than President Bush's Tax Cuts. None of
my fellow candidates seem concerned
about this massive unfunded
mandate. This mandate is 100% attributable to the
U.S. Income Tax
Code. I, as President, will do all in my power to completely
replace
that Code and keep that $500 BILLION back in our economy where it
ha
always belonged. Oh, and all that can be accomplished without cutting
a
single item from the budget.
#2 – The U.S. Government has been
granting TAX EXEMPT status to drug
dealers, child pornographers and common
criminals for far too long.
Such criminals pay NOTHING on their ill-gotten
income because they, of
course, never report it. THIS HAS TO END. The U.S.
Income Tax Code
must be replaced with a tax that forces everyone to pay
Federal taxes
when they purchase a retail item, not when they happen to
report their
income. As President, I will do all in my power to replace that
Income
Tax Code and stop forcing American taxpayers to in effect
SUBSIDIZE
these criminals with their own hard-earned money.
#3
– The U.S. Government has known for years that DEMOGRAPHIC forces
will
condemn America to bankruptcy with our current Social Security
and Medicare
systems. That is a FACT that my fellow candidates don't
seem to want to
address. The problem lies mainly in flawed funding of
these programs as
specified in the U.S. Income Tax Code. By switching
funding of these programs
to a consumption-
based tax this country will
be saved from that
bankruptcy, for now and for the future. As
President, I will do all in my
power to replace the U.S. Income Tax
Code and protect current Seniors as well
as their kids and grandchildren.
