It is also sad that the fed budget is so bloated that it requires 9% of all income, sales, and what was that other 9 for?

Corporate income.

Her book only has one review, by the way.  Some kind person should add more.
Her book has received a lot of negative reviews lately.  I gave her a positive one.

I seem to recall hearing (so correct me with a nailbat if necessary) that lower-income households spend a greater portion of their income on food and basic consumer goods, which are also taxed under H. Cain's plan. So the poor get screwed on their income, and then screwed again when they try to live off that income.

Completely correct. Any kind of sales tax disproportionately taxes the poor-through-middle-classes, who must spend almost all their income on survival.

Quote from: Nigel on October 19, 2011, 10:29:19 PMYes; we need a progressive tax so that we are taxing excess income most heavily, and not taxing survival income at all.

That makes a lot of sense. So no taxes up to, say, $20k or something?

That's below what's considered the poverty line in the US for a family of four. So definitely, no taxes up to that point, but I'd put that mark up higher.

For a single person, yes. Currently the line below which a single person pays no Federal income tax is absurdly low; around $11k or something, and it's around $20k for a family of four.

I gave our friend Ms. Brookstone a glowing review for her brilliant work of satire. Please feel free to vote it up: http://www.amazon.com/Planetary-Bill-Rights-Project-Prosperity/product-reviews/1456503588/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

Also, LOLing at her LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/melissa-brookstone/29/230/9b6


It's been deleted. Victory?
I saw her Facebook page yesterday, and I think she had like 13 friends IIRC.  Today she has 6.

I am extremely amused that she misspells "illustrated" on the page where she states that a primary goal is 100% worldwide literacy. :lulz: I know  it's just a typo, but it's a funny one.

The irony of it all

QuoteAbout 5 people so far, have gone to the Amazon.com page for my book and added bad reviews of it, yet only one copy has been sold in October, in fact I think only half a dozen copies have been sold all year, because as I said, it's buried under 2.5 million other books there. So it's pretty well established that anyone can write a review, especially if they're diametrically opposed to your philosophy and hate what you're saying. It would help if the people looking at those bad reviews at Amazon knew this, however. ( Maybe several thousand of you who are philosophically in tune and haven't read the book, could go there and write great 5 star reviews. LOL Just kidding! ;-)

They weren't all bad.  Nigel and I both gave her 5 stars.  :?

Also, this:
QuoteAnd that photo they grabbed off a Libertarian Meetup site, and have been plastering around, trying to promote terrorism against me? Guess where that photo came from. My concealed carry license.
