I'm for it but I know it will never pass. :-( Not with the present dolts we have in office. To make matters worse it won't/hasn't mattered who was controlling Congress, Senate or The White house. Why hell, if they actually did something logical then they wouldn't have anything to run for office on. They know that taxes control us and until we get rid of the UNCONSTITUTIONAL income tax and the effing IRS nothing, and i mean NOTHING will ever happen as far as a "Fair Tax", PERIOD.
I don't expect anything like it to pass in my lifetime and I expect to live at least another 40 years.

It is already in the process of happening, how fast depends only on whether or not you buy into the idea of your own powerlessness. If you do, they have already done what they set out to accomplish. Make you a slave.
"The government then manipulates that will in order to destroy the freedom of our electoral system through the income tax structure, and we call the resulting slavery a free system."
"In point of fact, it is not as the founders understood, and the only way to restore real freedom is to give people back control over the income that they earn so that they won‘t, at the voting booth and in other phony issues, be subject to that manipulation."
