Excellent.

The FairTax is an idea whose time has come.

Nothing short of a revolution will bring about ANY sort of real tax reform. Ever.

Question does the fair tax get rid of all the taxes or just the ones on your check. I.E. phone tax, gas tax, etc. etc. etc..

Looks like we are off to the races.

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:

I bought it the day it came out, at Barnes and Noble regretfully. Because of FR I already knew most eveything in it but I bought it just to add to the numbers. Seems many others did, too.

I thought that this issue was dead. I am shocked and surprised that it has gained this much notice. Great Job!

I am almost finished with this book. I strongly reccomend picking it up. (My wife got mine at Sams Club for 15 bucks)
This is an idea whose time has come. I have also frequently had that feeling that there is no way that this law could get passed. My feeling with this news is that this could possibly become a groundswell that may have results. To echo the sentiments of some of the other posts, If enough politicians get enough feedback from voters, they will realize that ingnoring the FairTax may cost them their jobs.

Way to go Boortz and Linder. This is one heck of an accomplishment. Kudos to these fine patriots.

Excellent news? The question now is how many weeks will it stay #1 or top five, top ten? Will it become a T.V. reality show?

Hubby and I have our copy, and we're looking it over now. I'm thinking of ordering more to send to family members.
