If there must be taxes

Then I support Universal Basic Income with a flat sales tax for all registered corporations including religious organizations that function as corporations

But no sales tax or any tax at all for individuals not registered as corporations.

If someone is allowed to use corporate status as a legal shield in court trials then they should be required to pay the sales tax

@basedbagel

Religious organizations function as a corporation and in doing so get out of legal trouble for unethical things

Pastor says underlings did it not me I should not be liable

Underlings say Pastor told me to do it so I should not be liable

Because of this trick that is why I want to tax religious organizations for acting like corporations

And no more special non profit corporation status either

Milton Friedman - The Negative Income Tax

LibertyPen

Milton Friedman

supported Negative Income Tax

Negatuve Income Tax = Universal Basic Income + Flat Income Tax

On the condition that numerous government programs to assist the poor like food stamps are removed

He thought giving UBI but removing food stamps is cheaper than paying for food stamps and all those other kinds of programs to help the poor combined

I think it should be a sales tax instead

@basedbagel

In economics, a negative income tax (NIT) is a system which reverses the direction in which tax is paid for incomes below a certain level; in other words, earners above that level pay money to the state while earners below it receive money, as shown by the blue arrows in the diagram. NIT was proposed by Juliet Rhys-Williams while working on the Beveridge Report in the early 1940s and popularized by Milton Friedman in the 1960s

"Negative Income Tax" became prominent in the United States as a result of advocacy by Milton and Rose Friedman, who first put forward a concrete proposal in 1962 in a brief section of their book Capitalism and Freedom.[10] Their system is equivalent in its operation to most forms of universal basic income (UBI)

In the system I am proposing if there must be taxes

A customer who is not a corporation who is buying from someone who is not a corporation would not pay sales tax

In all other transactions such as

A corporation buying from a seller who is not a corporation

A corporation buying from a corporation

A corporation selling to a customer who is not a corporation

Only corporations would be required to keep records of taxes & to file tax rrcords

@Zeb @basedbagel

A $10 product with $1 sales tax means the corporation would make $1 less profit then selling the same product for $11 with $0 sales tax and the customer would pay $1 more than the same product for $10 with $0 sales tax

The customer would lose $1 more on the transaction due to the tax and the corporation would make $1 less profit on the transaction through the tax but the government would only gain $1 and not $2 due to the tax

In a sense both buyer & seller pay the tax

> if there must be taxes

Yes there has to be taxes. I don't like it either but that's how it has to be.

The Ancap fantasy is just that. A fantasy.
