What is it with the English? We broke away from that tax thing in 1776! Don't you guys get it? The tax on ammo is at 11% right now, same as that on manufactured firearms. Go tax something else. I propose a lid on all taxes. No US citizen shall ever pay more than 50% of their income on ANY and ALL taxes, combined. Income, property, ammo, sales tax, surtaxes, school taxes, levies, etc. The collective governments can get together and SHARE that 50%, but they'll get no more. Let them figure out where to cut and budget what their share of it is! That is all I'm willing to give up. After that, we fight! When it reaches 50%, the taxpayer is exempt of all further taxes. Flat tax, do away with sales taxes: they'll be included in the single tax collection. Hell, think of how many pointless government jobs can be cut if one tax departmemnt does the collection and distribution to the respective governments.
