But It's For The Children

I propose a new plan to fund every government program Democrats can possibly think of (and thats a lot), abolish all existing taxes and STILL have money left over to give big tax rebates!

Unlike plans that call for funding to come from sales of products that the same people have outlawed and now taxed out of near existence...(underfunded), MY PLAN (below) is guaranteed to never ever decrease and recent years would have provided unimaginable revenue to the state and federal government.

I propose that we tax lies.
Not when someone is just wrong mind you, but when they intentionally lie. Particularly politicians and pundits but we should all share the burden appropriately.
Based of course on the size of the whopper and number of people that believe it, damage to the country or individual lie was used against. And yes it can be applied to both sides providing you can prove it's a lie...(you cannot PROVE Bush lied on WMD when everyone else said the same thing and believed it at the time, but if you lie and say someone else was lying... double $. Bill Clinton (and Hillary) would still be making payments on statements (I don't need to point them out do I?) made during his presidency.

Here are some examples of how my plan might work...
If you lie and call in sick to work... that's maybe $200. If they call you a liar and you happen to really be sick this time... that costs them double or $400. (lie to now get new job not included)
If you lie and call your spouse while cheating... maybe $2,000. (lies during divorce not included)
If you lie about your "wide stance" in the mensroom of an airport...(including above lie) $10,000 (Subsequent lies not included)
Lie about killing a fully developed unborn infant for personal convenience or political gain as merely a woman's "choice" and her body is the only consideration ...$500,000 and this tax would fund free abortions for all. (calling yourself "planned parenthood" while offering abortion as the solution neither helps people plan to be parents nor promotes parenthood multipledouble lie) $10-million.
If you lie and call the President a liar on WMD's, ... $50,000xdouble lie=$100,000 (plus bonus if you earlier said the exact same thing but don't consider yourself a liar double again)x2= $100,000. If US reputation abroad is damaged, - $100million, and at time of war x2= $200million.

If you lie about a US General during a time of war for political gain... $100million (in cash) plus possible treason charges. If you accused a US General of lying while testifying before congress during a time of war... and he wasn't, that'll be $500million and immediate resignation before treason hearings commence against you.

Or if you lie and say that a tax "for the children" isn't really a tax but is funded by overtaxing a product that is already being outlawed... or some such other trick/lie... Use the following formula and divide the amount of the total cost of the program by the number of people who used the above lie to sell it. Okie Funk, Blue Oklahoma and the other mediamatters/dailydose/moveon.org CLONES could pay for free healthcare (and free everything else) here in Oklahoma with the source of revenue they would provide alone.

Under my plan, each individual has control over his/her taxes... if you want lower taxes (republicans) simply tell fewer lies and if you want to pay more taxes (Democrats) simply tell more lies (if that is possible).
How do we enforce it? Voluntary with high incentives.
Whenever someone calls "BS" on you, all you have to do is whip out your receipt and tell them to back off. They don't have to believe you, but at least understand you paid the price to say it and might respect you for that alone.

Any new government program you would like to fund, just use the taxes on the lies to sell that program as the source for the revenue.-yes?

SO VOTE YES on taxtheliars 'cause after all, "it's for the kids."
oops, did I just say "it's for the kids"? That might be worth a few bucks right there.
