IRS, Income Tax and International Trade Deals

To Pat Toomey,

Will you pledge that you will work to eliminate the IRS along with the Federal Income Tax??  And have them replaced with a 25% national retail sales tax.

It means no corporate tax, no capital gains tax, no more inheritance and death taxes, no more social security and medicare taxes, no witholdings, no more audits, and no more accountants.

So I ask you is to look at the current tax code.

And willl you look to stop interational trade deals like NAFTA and the WTO?
