Sounds good - yeah, lets get those big nasty businesses!

Only one problem...

Businesses _don't_pay_taxes_!  Period.

Also, not one nickel of your income tax goes to fund any government
programs.  It *all*, every *nickel* (quoting the Grace Commission Report),
goes to pay on the debt.  In a debt-based, fractional reserve monetary
system (*all* money in circulation *must*, by *definition*, be *borrowed*
into existence), the only way to keep a handle on hyper-inflation is to tax
the excess out of the system - hence, the income tax (or did you think it
was just a coincidence that we got bothe the income tax and the federal
reserve system the same year?).

Since the vast majority of Americans legally owe no income tax (see
www.taxableincome.net), I am perfectly happy with the system the way it is,
with one exception - the runaway government thugs (agents, officers,
commissioners masquerading as judges, etc) who trample on the Constitution
as if it were toilet paper.
