    I don't know, a sense of charity, lack of greed, or general goodness? In fact, what is it with you Sun types that kills off the ability to do any of the above? Civility never kills, except in Congress.

    Now, being the mensa-brain having guy that you are, do you see the unfairness of a "goods and services" tax? Or do you not care whether it's fair?

    If it is than you don't understand it, consider this: A person making $40K pays a huge percentage of his income on goods and services--say 75%, while a person with perhaps a $300K income might spend $60K on goods and services. So, now the rich guy is taxed on only 20% of his income and the nearly-poor guy is taxed on 75%.

    The richer people aren't going to choose to eat more meals (only slightly better ones), have many more shoes (maybe a pair or two), etc.

    It's not about how one chooses to spend.
