Bullshit tax laws

I know that if i ever run for a public post, i can win by a comfortable majority....provided the voters have commonsense. Most of the elections are farce, they call it democratic and yet when illiterates creep into the system, the outcome is obvious. So lets not go in that direction...my point is about senseless tax laws. I still dont get it as to why they say income tax and the income after tax is again taxed when you buy things. I mean does it make sense at all? and if i ask people around they start lecturing me about income tax going to federal/central govt and sales tax going to state. I am not that dumb to understand the existing system. I have gone through the pain of studying civics along with history. I still dont get it as to what can u do knowing history....and on a lighter side --> The history repeats and hence there is no need to understand and remember history :D

Knowing history can only make you a popat...popat=Parrot in hindi, you can be a good popat when you have history at your tongue tip and can win you admirers when exact dates and events are narrated. Back to taxes, doesnt it make sense to issue a kind of tax card which you can use it to avoid paying sales tax? you must have a kind of photo id which also contains tax information, if the records on swipe shows that you have already paid tax then you need not be charged sales tax on the already taxed income. So if there are some who are avoiding taxes then sales tax could be collected on purchase. This system sounds sane to me rather than the existing one. if i stand in the election and if i win, then i will bring in these new tax laws.

I also dont understand the concept of political morons going for more taxes to rich, i mean some people are rich as they work hard, they provide jobs for others. So why penalize them for working 20+ hours a day and working under pressure? For someone gone through 16+ years of schooling and 10+yrs of industrial exp is bound to start a company and any company exists for profits. There isnt any company that is social company, the only social company i know of is the company you get when you booze :D. So if someone is not rich then blame it on fate and blame it on the laziness factor. Vote me and i will put an end to this crap
