FairTax plan which is an absolute nonstarter in Washington.

Next to the income tax which has the most support in DC, the FairTax has the most support with 60 members of congress having signed on as sponsors or co-sponsors. No other tax reform bill comes remotely close to that many sponsors. It think one bill for a flat tax has three or four sponsors.

And that's gotten you what, exactly? Nothing. Hell, when then Senate Finance Committee held it "kick off" for tax reform, the FairTax was only mentioned once and that was to say it was a "nonstarter." What wonderful support y'all have.
