For those that don't understand what the Fair Tax is, I recommend you go to FairTax.org and do a little research. A good book to read about the Fair Tax is "Fair Tax: The Truth" by Neal Boortz and Congressman John Linder. Mike Huckabee is also a strong supporter of the Fair Tax
I was just about to mention this. What a radical idea - keep the income that you've earned and tax what you BUY. We could get rid of 90% of IRS employees as it would simplify the system greatly. And maybe get some consumer spending under control. Also, sales tax too high - buy a cheaper tv, stereo or just do without.
