SJ,  Nice try, what tax is he also eliminating?  You may want to look-up for yourself how many countries have a Value Added Tax (VAT).  I know what a regressive tax is but thanks for supplying the link anyway.  I also recommend you read the entire plan instead of cherry picking something and distorting the plan.  Somebody else tried this exact same thing the other day, actually the same quote.  You really do crack me up.
