Fair Tax is the way to return power to individuals and out of the hands of out-of-control feds
How so? My spouse & I apply the 16th Amendment income “excise” tax to all the revenue our business generates and since we quit participating in privileged revenue generating activities as defined by 26 USC, we have not paid a penny in income or FICA “excise” taxes for over 10 years. So I am wondering how you feel this ‘fair tax’ as you call it, how it will free the unprivileged business/employee from the same corruption and abuse that is going on today with the current 100% constitutional income “excise” tax? You can read the TRUTH at the following links to the tax discussion from yesterday... The tax is not the problem, it is the tax illiterate public at large that is the problem.

As defined by the Supreme Court as well as the IRS’s Legislative tax Attorney, the income “excise” tax is a tax on certain privileged activities and the amount of tax owed is determined by the dollars produced by participating in those privileged activities. The vast majority of Americans, business owners as well as their employees, are not engaged in privileged activities or very little if they are. (cont. reading at above link)

Unfortunately the 16th Amendment allowed an income tax
...and there you go, spewing myths. The income duty (tax) and the Dept. of Internal Revenue, as we know them today, were created by the Internal Revenue Act of 1862. This statute is the core foundation of the IRS Code, only the numbers have changed in regards to withholding (yes, there was withholding back then), deductions & the base amount one can make before having to pay income taxes.

While I advise everyone to pay taxes
