Repeal Income Tax

Cutting taxes is the key to the economy, but if you get rid of income tax your country must cut spending to have a balanced deficit. Like our Economist Alan Greenspan says "Whatever you tax, you get less of."

I say we get rid of the income tax and replace it with nothing. Only have national sales tax but don’t raise it, just balance the budget and cut wasteful spending. I urge everyone to get the word out, this is in our countries best interest.

“Anything that we can do to raise personal savings is very much in the interest of this country.” Alan Greenspan

Umm...bubba, you've commited major proposal sins. By including "I" you're branding which is illegal here. Also you've just co-opted the real Alan Greenspan for your own. That's a real world reference which is illegal, and just plain lazy. Make up your own name and a government position and then copy/paste.
