an economy is not supported by income taxes! it is drained by them! our country & you can look it up was founded not allowing wage/income taxes. we flourished because all taxes were excise based. (meaning you had to buy or sell something or use something to be taxed) income taxes sucessfully do 1 thing and 1 thing only that is grow the size and control of the government. the best way to grow a country is to let people use their $ to drive the economy and then tax the sales of products and the profit of the sellers. incidentally this is the only way we will get this country back on track. get the federal government out of the peoples pocket and get politicians hands out of the pot.
