McCain new view?

Question

what is your opinion of his idea to give tax reief vy suspending gasoline tax & simplifying the general tax situation & doubling the child credit on tax returns

Answer 1

I would not suspend gas tax as that would encourage more driving,  but simplifying taxes is good.  Tax relief without spending reductions is just transferring tax debt to our grandchildren.  Reducing government spending will allow future tax relief.  It is one of Ron Paul's beliefs that I supported.

Answer 2

Suspending gas tax won't help much but I am in favor of a flat tax rate.  Everybody pays the same percentage of tax.

Answer 3

Suspending the Gas tax would be foolish as the money is supposed to be going into alternative energy research...Simplifying the general tax situation would be a great help...doubling the child credit is useless and will result in folks having kids to get the credit...similar to birthing babies to increase welfare payments.  PEACE!
