                    IT IS TIME TO DUMP THE TAX CODE

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, our Tax Code costs us $140 billion a 
year. There are over 200 forms. All our income, savings, education, and 
investments are taxed. Even business taxes are passed on to us. We are 
even taxed for marital sex. Beam me up. It is time to pass a flat 
national retail sales tax, 15 percent. No more income taxes, no more 
taxes on savings, no more forms, no more deadlines, no more 
accountants, no more lawyers, no more receipts, no more Internal 
Revenue Service. It is time, ladies and gentlemen of Congress.
  I yield back this Communist, un-American Tax Code by saying to both 
parties: tax this.
