Huckabee on Tax Policy at the New Jersey Estate Planning & Elder Law Blog
At the New Jersey Estate Planning & Elder Law Blog Deirdre Wheatley-Liss of Fein Such Kahn & Shepard relates A conversation with Mike Huckabee [former governor of Arkansas] on Tax Policy where she asked Huckabee the following question:
"Governor Huckabee, here in New Jersey we are in the most expensive state to live in and the most expensive state to do business in from a tax perspective. How is it that the government's share in our work could be productive to our businesses instead of having a dampening effect?"Wheatley-Liss summarizes Huckabee's reply:
* Corporate Tax does not exist [because] "Taxes are a cost of doing business that is passed along to the ultimate consumers of good and services - you and me."Read it all.
* A FAIR tax would jumpstart the economy.... Gov. Huckabee explained it as a tax on consumption....
* Eliminate tax penalties for bringing offshore dollars into the US as an immediate solution to our fiscal crisis....
