Default Civil Aviation question

Congress is powerful because of the tax laws. Business
can't plan ahead more than a 2 years because every election
brings new tax policies. Alter the tax code, perhaps H.R.
25 The Fair Tax Act, that will remove a lot of the day to
day special loopholes for one segment and also do away with
the IRS. Then taxes will be based on what you spend, not
what you earn. If Congressmen have less power they won't be
bribed as often because they would not be able to give
special favors.

| Because corporations are not citizens, they should be
permitted no
| influence in government policy.
|
|
| By this logic then organizations such as the AOPA, AARP,
NRA and PTA
| should
| have no influence?
|
|
| While those groups certainly are corporations, they do
represent their
| members (hundreds of thousands of citizens) unlike
Halliburton, Enron,
| Exxon, Accuweather, Carlyle Group, ..., that exert more
legislative
| influence than the lawmakers' own constituents.
|
| Big business only represents greed, and their unethical
| (Abramoffesque) corruption of legislators must be
stopped.
|
|
|
| So it's just companies that you don't agree with for one
reason or another
| that shouldn't have influence? I'll make sure when the
reform laws are
| passed we legislate that you get the final OK on who gets
free speech.
|
| The problem isn't the companies doing the influencing and
not really the
| politicians that allow themselves to be to be influenced.
The problem is the
| voters that keep reelecting the politicians.
|
| Everybody thinks Congress as a whole sucks but love their
own rep and/or
| senator.

I have not a clue as to what the Fair Tax Act calls for or does. But keep in
mind that like all laws that Congress passes it can be changed by yet
another law Congress passes.

Remember the law on unfunded mandates. Big news when that fine law passed.
There was no news when the one ending passed and passed it must have because
unfunded mandates are back.
