6.250 Taxation
Andronicos "The Great" as Director of the Human Race and Manager Planet Earth commands and Andronicos "The Cynic" responds as follows.........
Congressman Dick Armey introduced an interesting intuitive proposal to reform the USA tax system. It was a radical new approach: the introduction of a flat rate tax system of 17% for everyone. He actually argued that if all personal income was subject to non deductions whatsoever - the tax rate would fall to 10%. I like the idea of having less bureaucracy, less paid professional assistance and less tax officials topped with the knowledge you don't need to be a university professor to fill out formal tax questionnaires. Nevertheless, such a system will not be fair until the minimum threshold for what is today defined as the poorest of society, reaches a much higher level of basic living conditions. The day will come when everyone will pay a small flat rate "mandatory" tax. (Read my lips - I said "small".) In the meantime, I direct all tribes to continue with whatever tax system their leaders promised their electorate would be provided to them. There is no need to get permission from me on this matter - so go ahead: Tax. But while on the subject of taxation, I do direct all Sovereign tribes warn public corporations that a World Unification Tax may be introduced as a one off exercise for a few years. Such a move will stabilise the main stock markets from the mayhem public support of the 12-12-12 initiative will cause and of course be very, very popular with everyone except some greedy public companies who can't see further than the end of their financial year.
