[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1965351, member: 229"] I don't know anything about Bridenstine other than he apparently wants to bite the heads off babies and spit them in the faces of nuns while at the same time raising our taxes to what has been stated as "a crippling" amount. I felt like asking about him in a place where I could get some meaningful intelligent conversation, but then again - I'm lazy, so what say you OSA'ers? It's basically a flat-sales tax to replace the income-tax (and presumably, the IRS with all their federal budget requirements) right? I've read that this doesn't necessarily tax everyone fairly (supposedly the middle-class takes the brunt of the taxes somehow?), but I'm almost to the point of discounting everything I read as fiction. I'm not really for it or against it as I don't have the background in the tax-system, but it seems like it's not as ridiculous as the anti-Bridenstine ads are making it out to be (I will say though, the fact that I see both Dems and Republicans shouting idiotic verbal-poop at his idea, makes me want to vote for it just based on that alone).
