THANKS, I WILL READ THE BOOK
HOWEVER I READ THE BILL H.R.- 25 YOU SHOULD READ IT CAREFULLY
REF:
"ADJUSTMENT TO THE RATES IN SUBSEQUENT YEARS"
"REPEALS INCOME TAX" IF "THE SIXTEETH AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION IS REPEALED WITHIN SEVEN YEARS" THUS CURRENT SYSTEM
WOULD STILL BE IN FORCE.
ITS COMMON SENSE THAT THE GOVERNMENT COULD NOT SUPPORT ITS OPERATIONS AND THE DEBT, AND SOC SEC, ETC. ETC. ON 23%.
THIS BILL IS A DISGUISE FOR A GIGANTIC TAX INCREASE
BEWARE OF BILLS THAT USE "SOUND BITES"
READ EVERY LINE AND DETERMINE THE CAUSE & EFFECT
