I think tax reform is needed, and perhaps a fair tax could be made to work, but when its proponents do nothing but call people who disagree with them "idiots" and "morons" then the fair tax people have lost the argument even before there is a proper debate. If you think tax reform is important and not just another sporting event with winners and losers, then you need to help. Soon the debate will go national, and the side that best keeps their wits and sounds professional will prevail.
