Cain's 9-9-9 Plan Would Cost Average Americans More

American Voices • Politics • ISSUE 47•42 • Oct 17, 2011

An analysis has shown Republican candidate Herman Cain's tax plan, which would levy a flat rate of 9 percent on all incomes, sales, and business profits, would cost average Americans substantially more than they pay now. What do you think?

“Look, getting America out of this recession demands we all share the bold, written-on-the-back-of-a-napkin sacrifice Cain has proposed.”
