British Democracy Forum - View Single Post - Question Should income taxes be abolished?

There seems to be a buzz around here that income taxes should be abolished or significantly lowered. I was just wondering the popularity of this move and what people would replace it with.

I believe it should be lowered greatly or removed and so should sales, inheritance, capital gains, fuel, alcohol and tobacco and property taxes and a land value tax system used instead with any necessary shortfall being made up with tariffs.
