The so-called "Fair Tax", or sales tax, has been a disaster in Europe. The Flat Tax has been a resounding success everywhere it's been tried (Ireland and Russia are two examples).

Why should we even consider a tax method that has flopped everywhere instead of one that has succeeded?

Good article, looks like information on the FairTax is getting out and spreading.

A Taxreform bump for you all.

If you would like to be added to this ping list let me know.

John Linder in the House(HR25) & Saxby Chambliss Senate(S25) offer a comprehensive bill to kill all income and SS/Medicare payroll taxes outright and replace them with with a national retail sales tax administered by the states.

H.R.25,S.25
A bill to promote freedom, fairness, and economic opportunity by repealing the income tax and other taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service, and enacting a national retail sales tax to be administered primarily by the States.

Refer for additional information:

Terrific endorsement. You can tell the desire for real reform runs very deep.

Just got my copies of the fairtax book, signed by Neal tonight!!

Met some good folks at the book signing too. There was a pretty decent crowd, and those books are flying off the racks.
