It's amazing how many people won't even LISTEN when I mention Fair Tax or who have never, ever heard of it. Lots of our friends don't think it'll ever happen so then they don't even want to TRY to make it happen. It seems like a dream come true to me! I'm going to keep talking/writing about it!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07863383297019934856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-601874105598784590.post-85611042157239385162009-05-05T23:53:00.000-04:002009-05-05T23:53:00.000-04:00Oh, I forgot to mention - it looks like most of th...Oh, I forgot to mention - it looks like most of the links are broken in the article.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-601874105598784590.post-83113348355655380402009-05-05T22:39:00.000-04:002009-05-05T22:39:00.000-04:00Great post!

I've broached the subject with many of my friends and the misconceptions about the topic or the plain ignorance of the idea is amazing. I believe the more people come to understand Fairtax, support will grow. I'll keep hoping.Laura Adelmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05268416814849426620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-601874105598784590.post-65116904759262476012009-05-05T21:55:00.000-04:002009-05-05T21:55:00.000-04:00There has been a lot of news regarding the tax fai...There has been a lot of news regarding the tax failure of certain people, and while I do not want provide too much cover for their behavior, I think it is apparent to everyone who pays taxes that are tax system is beyond difficult. <br /><br />I totally support either a flat tax or a national sales tax. There are a few problems with this thought process though. The first problem is the politicians and the establishment that gleans their livelihood from the current fiasco. They will be tough to throw off. <br /><br />The other thing that needs to be considered is whether we tax basic services such as food and health care. And how does the government foster an industry that they think is important to the long term health of the nation?<br /><br />I am not sure that Obama has the political might to get this done, but I do know that Progressives and Liberals agree with you on this point.<br /><br />Oh... I totally support a lower sales tax for American made products (protectionism I know, but I would love to see more quality American made products), and no sales tax for active military (nice pay boost for anemic pay).<br /><br />Peace.<br />Rick BeagleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
