The Distributional Impact of Cain's 9-9-9 Plan

Pretty much tells you all you need to know:

Keep this in mind when the Dixie's and Ice Dancer's of the world tell you how great the poor will have it under the 9-9-9 plan.
 
Very effective graphic in a message board post.

I give Cain about another 1-2 weeks on top of the "wave." Then, another last-ditch attempt to draft Christie. Last, solemn resignation that Romney is the guy.

Oh, followed by wild support for Romney by Dixie as "the next Reagan," after his nomination is a foregone conclusion.

Well, he is you know. The next Reagan... As soon as he's the foregone conclusion that is... ;)

I met the dude when he was here in CO stumping for McCain...

His hair definitely has a similar vibe to Reagan's. I actually thought he was pretty good in the debate last night.

I had to look up what he said in 2007... on MTP... He said it was a good program for Mass. and could be good for some states, "but not all of them"...

Perry was lying. What a dink. He's done. I'm not sure about Cain. If Cain is willing to work around the 999 plan he might be able to work something out, but he needs some serious help in his campaign. That 999 plan will sink his campaign. It simply will never pass.

You're full of shit, Damo, as usual. You want to parade around like you fucking know everything, and you are as clueless as some on the left when it comes to this. At least Herman Cain is bold enough to put a PLAN out there, unlike you HERO ROMNEY, who hasn't got a plan, except to try and convince us all he is a conservative and not a RINO! You're ready to hand the 2012 election to Obama because you are afraid of Herman Cain, who believes in *gasp* JESUS! Unless we all become mindless secular robots and glum onto Romney like a bunch of retarded idiots, you aren't going to be satisfied. That's what YOU want, some fake conservative who proudly distances himself from social conservatism at every opportunity, because to you... that's what is most important. Fuck you and your vote, we don't need your pathetic ass or your politics. You should go join the retards on Wall Street.

You sound so angry.

I just wanted to make sure to save this post, for when Romney gets the nomination & becomes amazing....

Excellent. I would make one suggestion...writing "retarded idiots" is considered redundant and not what I'd call tip-top grammar. Other than that, good show, though I've seen you do far more hysterical rants. You should have punched this one up with some "pinheads".

He was ranting at Damo.
"Pinheads" is reserved for rants at liberals.
 
The 9-9-9 plan is not a real plan. He's perfectly willing to spell out what tax cuts he wants, alright, but nowhere does he give specifics about the cuts he wants to make.

:rolleyes:

No, just throwing out unworkable plans that will never pass isn't what is important. Again. Cain isn't done, but he needs to tweak his plan or to explain it better than "go to my website and read about it"... he needs help to get the message out. Now that he's getting some money it is time to hire a team.

Perry is done, IMO. You might not care about the 11th Commandment, but flat lying about what people have said about something will not net my vote. I dislike that the republican candidates are letting these people direct the argument from the moderator position. Dude asks one question that I would like to hear an answer on, then the "moderator" changes the question and asks 8 different questions trying to make maximum argument between candidates.

What will you do if Romney is the candidate? I think it is likely he will be.

I like Cain, but I don't like the 999 plan, I've explained why. Adding a sales tax with the current tax code will solely net us a new tax, the tax code will look just like it does now in a couple decades AND we'll have a sales tax to boot.

The most workable plan, IMO, would be a set deduction/flat rate plan.
