It would appear so. Thanks for noticing, and thanks for the “ping.”
I have a two year old FairTax “Ping list” which, when the occasion warrants, I use in an attempt to keep the momentum for FairTax moving forward, one mind at a time. The FairTax “ping list” I use contains names of some people who are no longer FReeping. But hope springs eternal in the human breast, so I continue to “ping” away, whenever I see an article that has relevance to the FairTax.
I’ve been in the “replace the income tax with a National Retail Sales Tax (NRST) and abolish the IRS” movement since April 17, 1991 (courtesy of a Pat Buchanan op-ed piece of that date), and was an “Inside the Evil Beltway (ITEB)” lobbyist for the NRST FRom 1995 until 2004.
My advocating and lobbying activities ITEB were a labor of love for me. I HATE THE INCOME TAX AND THE IRS! I was mostly unpaid for my activities ITEB. A small trust fund and some part-time work kept me going until my mother got too old to live by herself and I had to leave WDC and move to Jacksonville, FL.
Since I can no longer advocate for the FairTax ITEB, I do so FRom my keyboard and in my daily interaction with my fellow Americans.
As the Ophonybama depredations on our American Way of Life continue apace, and particularly in respect of the IRS, I expect that it will become increasingly easier to sell the Fairtax concept to both politicians and the American public.
FairTax advocates, both inside and outside the Evil Beltway have made steady progress in their education campaign, but much, much more needs to be done.
I NEVER IMAGINED THAT FReedom WOULD BE SUCH A HARD SELL!
If you or anyone reading this post wishes to get added to my Fairtax “ping” list, please FReepmail me and I’ll be more than happy to add you to our roll of FairTax supporters here on FRee Republic. Likewise if you no longer wish to be “pinged,” Freepmail me.
