The Speaker of the House will push for replacing the nation's current tax system with a national sales tax or a value added tax, Hill sources tell DRUDGE.

"People ask me if I?m really calling for the elimination of the IRS, and I say I think that?s a great thing to do for future generations of Americans," Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert explains in his new book, to be released on Wednesday.

Well that's one way to try to win the popular vote, or at least, sell some books. Slipgate - Wink

so what is that sposed to mean, instead of paying taxes yearly, we just pay it whenever we pay for say, toilet paper?  ..... wouldnt that mean we'd be paying even MORE taxes than before?

ie: instead of property taxes and income tax, you'll get owned by service taxes. Utilities and the like. So LIVING here would be cheap, and actually doing anything beyond that will be expensive.
