For an example of consumption tax, see Europe's VAT tax. It's no picnic. I'm not sold on consumption taxes, because they bring their own share of headaches, and you can have loopholes with them also. I think there are many cases where they slow economic development. I would prefer a flat tax on income.

There's a reason why the supreme court ruled against the ten commandments being posted in federal buildings.....Can you imagine........<br /><br />Imagine putting up a sign that says ...thou shalt not steal, lie, and murder in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians? They would be scrambling for the exits..........LOL<br
