Position Papers
CAMAHORT PLAN TO END POVERTY WHILE SUSTAINING THE ENVIRONMENT
(1.)Scrap the Tax Code, abolish the IRS, and replace all taxes with a fair, flat transaction tax. Keep Govt. out of our pockets until we spend our money!(2.)Have the U.S. Treasury Dept. provide FREE PERSONAL financial services. Keep banks, insurers, and brokers out of our pockets forever!(3.)Consolidate all Federal benefits into one computerized, automated package based on age and income level;(4.)Be as productive as possible with our resources.
THE CAMAHORT TRANSACTION TAX
Replace all Taxes with a fair, flat Transaction Tax on everything paid by everyone. NO exceptions and NO exemptions. Employers pay on their payroll; Importers (Foreign and Domestic) pay on all imports; buyers pay on all retail and wholesale purchases, including real estate and equity transactions.
THE CAMAHORT FEDERAL BENEFITS PACKAGE
Consolidate all Government benefits into one computerized, electronic package based on age and income level, which incentivizes people to earn more; but disincentivizes them from having more than one child per parent per household. Plus have the U.S. Treasury Dept. provide PERSONAL financial services free of loan interest, insurance premiums and broker commissions.
