I recall studying Forbe's proposals on a flat tax when he ran for President and I was excited to think that one day such a system could replace the regressive income tax that currently exists.

Since then I have come around to the National Sales Tax because it has the best chance of returning to Americans a reasonable expectation of personal privacy and of strengthening the protections provided by the Fourth Amendment.

With a flat tax, there would still have to exist a mechanism whereby government could monitor and intrude upon one's personal property and finances. Secondly the flat tax could be morphed over time into special deductions and provisions for special interests, much as we have today.

Say no to the Flat Tax, say yes to the National Sales Tax.

Glad you came around to our way of thinking. Lotsa others have too.

You can help us by signing our petitions at http://www.salestax.org and http://www.votr.org.

Every signature gets us one signature closer to that "critical mass" we need to convince the pols that this is the right thing to do for America.

Ask your FRiends, relatives and business associates to sign on with us. We can do this, but we need more help.

say yes to the National Sales Tax.

And end up with BOTH a sales tax and an income tax, because, as mentioned above, the chances of getting rid of the 16th Amendment are somewhere south of nil.

Flat tax, all the way. And NOW!
