In an election season in which the GOP field seems to be clamoring for the most simple tax policy, Texas Senator Ted Cruz has outlined a bold plan for the IRS: he wants to shut it down. Advocating a flat tax policy of 10%, effective only after the first $36,000 in income, Cruz argues his plan is so straightforward the IRS itself is unecessary.
Don’t feel bad for employees of the IRS, though. Ted Cruz has a plan for them as well, and it’s sure to delight his conservative base. Continue reading on the next page to see where he’d send the ex-IRS employees:
Splendid!
This is how it happens.
Last night while you were sleeping the Senate voted to steal $150 billion dollars from the Social Security Trust Fund. I joined 34 of my colleagues in a vote to prevent this raid. I would like to thank Senator Rand Paul for leading the fight to protect to Social Security from the thieves in Washington, who seem to think that if they steal from the American people at night while they are sleeping that they will get away with it. I was proud to vote with Senator Paul on his point of order that would have protected Social Security, and I ask you to help me shine a light on what Washington has tried to hide from you in the darkness of night.
If everyone who sees this message shares it, it will reach millions of Americans. As someone who has been fighting for years to reform our broken government in Washington, I know it is exhausting, I sympathize with your frustration, and I understand your impatience. But don’t give up. Washington wants you to give up.
Just remember, a vote to raid social security in the middle of the night in a desperate attempt to perpetuate an unsustainable spending addiction isn’t a sign of strength. It is a sign of weakness.
EXCELLENT IDEA…..!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yup
IRS ‘nothings’ would be helping the illegals over the border! … or running away!
Start charging Mexico for every illegal we have to return to them. THEY WILL BUILD A WALL!
Amen
2 things I’ve read in books don’t know if it’s true or not but the IRS was voted in illegally by using Oklahoma as a swing vote before it became a state and also it was supposed to have a 100 year contract with the government which if that’s true wouldn’t that contract be up now
Put our veterans on the borders!
Great idea! Make them earn their salary for a change.
