Chatter of a high-percentage state sales tax being proposed by Republicans has taken over the internet in novel days. 

On Thursday, Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren joined the conversation, blasting the proposal in a tweet: "Hold on: House Republicans want a state 30% sales tax on everything from groceries to gasoline? ... Are they TRYING to show just how out of touch they are?" 

The proposal of a state sales tax is a real proposal from a people of House Republicans that will soon be voted on, opinion the concept isn't new. 

One key piece of inquire to know about the proposal is that the state sales tax would abolish and replace the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) — not add on top of the taxes Americans are already paying. 

"This bill will detach the need for the (IRS) department entirely by simplifying the tax code with provisions that work for the American farmland and encourage growth and innovation. Armed, unelected bureaucrats necessity not have more power over your paycheck than you do," said Georgia Republican Rep. Earl L. "Buddy" Carter.

Carter is the main Republican late the recirculation of the bill, known as the Fair Tax Act. Eleven Republicans are onboard as cosponsors. 

The idea of a flat, state sales tax was first introduced in Congress in 1999, according to Carter, by another former Georgia Congressman. 

The House will be voting on the Fair Tax Act, H.R. 25, thanks to a reported deal between House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and members of the House Freedom Caucus. FOX News Digital reported the deal helped push ahead McCarthy's quest for the gavel earlier this month at what time 14 failed votes.

The proposal is sure to be widely rejected by Democrats, who are instead behind bolstering a struggling IRS.
