Enact the HR 833 bill, suspend all federal income taxes for a year, if not indefinitely.

It is a mathematical impossibility, unless people project much higher growth rates for the future than what we've had in the past 100 years.
Unfortunately, the people sponsoring these tea parties are completely in denial over this, for political expediency. They get outraged over pork spending, bailouts (never mind that the alternative also includes public funds) and so on, but ignore completely that even if we spent nothing on these things, current tax rates would still be insufficient.

What do we do in life that isnt taxed? Is that the way its supposed to be? Do you know how much the state wasted lasted year? How much is unaccounted for?
No one seems to have a problem on the hidden tax American's pay for assuming the Fed is part of the government and being in charge of the economy.
