I would support repeal of the 16th amendment
and replacing it with a national retail sales tax
(not the “fair tax” and not the “flat tax”)
that would be collected by the states on all retail sales and services.
Why don’t I like the “fair tax”?
because of all the fall-de-rall around the “prebate”.
Why don’t I like the flat tax?
Because the federal government would still would have to keep up with
individual citizens and their income and the IRS would still be required.
Flat tax does not abolish the IRS!
FairTax does.
Please don’t let the prebate be a show stopper for you — FairTax with prebate is better than ANY income tax!
