Your Reading List...






Why am I pimping these books?



Because I feel they represent a quantum leap forward in terms of documenting true IRS reform and creating a natural limit to wanton US Congressional spending.

What is Fairtax?: The FairTax plan is a comprehensive proposal that replaces all federal income and payroll based taxes with an integrated approach including:
- A progressive national retail sales tax.
- A prebate to ensure no American pays federal taxes on spending up to the poverty level.
- Dollar-for-dollar federal revenue neutrality.
- Repeal of the 16th Amendment through companion legislation.

Have a readthrough of the following title:


http://www.amazon.com/FairTax-Answering-Critics-Neal-Boortz/dp/0061540463/ref=pd_bxgy_b_img_b


Neal Boortz and Georgia Congressman John Linder defend their initial treatise entitled "The FairTax Book: Saying Goodbye to the Income Tax and the IRS" and give readers an alternative to the current state of Progressive (Regressive?!?) US Tax Code.


Highly recommended for folks from both sides of the aisle.

I also council you to explore the Fairtax website at the link below:

Mike,

Thanks for spreading the word and the recommendation. I've only heard scant references to the FairTax plan up until now, so I look forward to the read and education. Instinctively, we all know something needs to be done with the current code, and I've longed for the day when a serious (i.e. electable) candidate will make tax reform a major component of his or her platform. Sigh...the wait continues. In the meantime, we all benefit by getting more informed and exposed to new ideas. Cheers for that!
