The issue I am addressing is MOTIVE not EFFECT while at the same time acknowledging a long time ago the negative effect this BILL will have.

All issues involved are a package, DM. You can't have one without the other. Addressing ONLY Tax Revenue is just not going to cut it.

Sooner or later is still part of the package. If we are going to change anything, let's lay out the WHOLE package. That is what Ted Cruz was doing in the video.

My opinion is that while it's primarily a revenue generating power grab by the federal and state governments, it will place undue burdens on small business. I don't think the primary reason is to lessen competition but that may be a secondary result of it.

I don't believe you can craft a bill and ignore, intentionally, the secondary or end result. These people know the end result. It isn't possible, IMO, they couldn't figure that out or admit they couldn't have figured that out.

It will place an enormous accounting burden on small businesses.

There is no way that anyone could convince me that this statement can be overlooked as only a tax revenue issue. It is such a huge no-brainer that this bill punishes growth and success...when 45% of income is paid by small business and having generated 80% of the jobs over the past 10 years.. Someone wants to tells me this is only about tax revenue.
