Simple to exclude.  Use the scan bar on the back of drivers licenses/state 
IDs.  Show the card with the picture (so no one else can use it) and then 
scan before paying.  Taxes removed or % thereof for the very lowest income.

Basic consumables such a flour, sugar, cornmeal, spices, veggies, TP, 
laundry soap, dish soap, shampoo would scan no tax.  Junk food would be 
taxed across the board.  Item that you could make at home (cake mixes, etc.) 
would be minor taxed.  All the ease of use (o.k., lets get real, lazy 
man/woman crap) would be max taxed just like sodas, candy, chips, etc. 
Basic Ford or Chevy, low tax.  Mercedes, BMW, higher tax.  Hummer, Mazaroti 
get the mega taxes as would them big fancy boats <g>  Same with houses.

Hey, I wouldn't want to be the prez, but I wouldn't mind being in charge of 
the new *real* tax department!
