The reason why the Evil Inside the Beltway crowd promotes the idea that the American “populace has a hard time understanding...” the FairTax is because they do not want to replace the income tax with the FairTax and abolish the IRS!
FairTax destroys every politician’s power base — his/her ability to manipulate the internal revenue code to benefit his/her FRiends, neighbors, relatives, power brokers, cronies, etc., etc.
That is precisely why We the People need to elect statesmen to public office — those American citizens willing to go to WDC and work FOR America! And not be bought off by special interests.
Ask your Representative and both Senators to sponsor FairTax!
living in maryland, i am working to change senators... they are the croniest...
we the people will work it out one way or the other.
