The FairTax is my second choice in tax systems.
My first choice is never going to happen: treating your fellow Americans like you would your friends, and split the bill evenly amongst all 300 million people. $10,000 per person too much ? Cut the size of government.
That wouldn't be bad, but for some reason we think it is a "good thing" that all the freeloaders that want to can vote. People are astounded when I say to them that I wish the number of voters would continue to shrink and shrink until I am the only person voting in the elections in which I vote.
That doesn't appease the great god Democracy.
