That's a lot more than the "no record" claimed. If it were changed to "minimal record" then I would not argue with it. But as it is written it is a lie.

That's one of my biggest beefs with the 'fair tax' proponents. They make extreme claims that aren't true. They say they eliminate the IRS, technically true I suppose, but there is still a federal revenue collection agency, just not called the IRS. Is that really an improvement?

The difference between 'no' record' and name, SSN, and address so that you can get a check that you are applying for is so small as to be ridiculous. If you are hanging your hat on that argument, then just come on board.

The IRS is defunded and torn apart. What the IRS REPRESENTS will also be destroyed. There will no longer be tedious reporting of the most intimate financial details to the Feds. Yeah, some one will always have to count the money. But the tyranny in getting it from the free people of this country will end. Do you have think that's not good?

Are you done picking nits?
