Continued from Sister Constitutionalist? Part 2:
Despite the historical facts, there remain those who would have us all “jump ship” for a third party. Seeing our options are limited, the Constitutionalist Party is advocated by some as the party to jump to. Despite their few good points and a novel (I’m not sure what to make of it) take on taxes, it remains to be asked: “Is this party truly Conservative?”
Unique Tax Policy:
To the degree that tariffs on foreign products, and excises, are insufficient to cover the legitimate Constitutional costs of the federal government, we will offer an apportioned "state-rate tax" in which the responsibility for covering the cost of unmet obligations will be divided among the several states in accordance with their proportion of the total population of these United States, excluding the District of Columbia. Thus, if a state contains 10 percent of the nation's citizens, it will be responsible for assuming payment of 10 percent of the annual deficit.
