Title: No More IRS? Post by: Phoenix on 2004-08-02, 08:36 http://www.drudgereport.com/rnc.htm (http://www.drudgereport.com/rnc.htm)
Quote 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. ;) Title: Re: No More IRS?
