Cain's economic expert came up with the 999 plan. He never went to school for economics but says "you don't need to have a PHD in physics to know what will happen when you drop a bowling ball".

Coincidently if you are a Sim City fan you will note that the default mode for local, state and sales taxes are 9%, 9% and 9% respectively.

COMMON SENSE SHOWS THAT THE PLAN WOULD BANKRUPT CORPORATIONS AND THE FEDERAL GOVT. ALIKE. Never mind that the plan only works in Sim City and not on a national economy. It slakes the thirst for common sense among tea party supporters, and that is all it is meant to do.
