27. And here is the problem...

...the "workers about to retire who could see their next eggs devoured by a large and unexpected sales tax" are viewed under this plan as "getting off scott free," EVEN THOUGH they paid income tax on that nest egg when it went into the bank. It's a double-dip...the government already got their substantial "share" right off the top. Now they would be helping themselves to a second, LARGER one.

:grr:
