The FairTax Book: Saying Goodbye to the Income Tax and the IRS
Authors, Neal Boortz & Congressman John Linder
196 pages. ISBN 978-0-06-087549-7
This short book detailing the FairTax was a #1 New York Times Bestseller.
I looked through my library in search of and intending to write a review of a book that offered some solutions to our present problems. I believe this book fits the bill. If we wish to reform our government and reclaim our liberty there can be no more effective way than to remove the easily abused funding method. I have heard many suggestions and objections regarding this option. This book explores and answers them all.
The many seemingly insurmountable financial problems facing us make this option very attractive. From addressing the “Social Security tax, the Medicare tax, corporate income taxes, the death tax, the self-employment tax, the alternative minimum tax, the gift tax, capital gains taxes, tax audits, and some major headaches every April 15” this is the most fair, possible and workable solution. It is not the be all, end all, to all of our problems but it is likely the most effective first step we could take.
What would be the best way to fund our federal government? My preference has little probability of occurring, but this option has some chance of passing and is thus, I believe, the best option considering our present political climate. The proposal is fair; it treats all taxpayers equally and the benefits are manifold. The poor would not pay any more than they do now. The middle class and even the rich would benefit. The only losers are the grafters, special interests and lobbyists who care not that their efforts push the burdens of their successes on the backs of others.
Mr. Boortz and Congressman Linder have written a very important short read for anyone interested in learning about and promoting something that could really help. Mr. Boortz has retired from the radio and Congressman Linder retired from congress in 2011, but their book continues in the effort to promote the proposal.
Do you want to turbo charge our economy? Take back your liberty? Constrain the tyrants? Please read this book and investigate www.FairTax.org for detailed information about the proposal and how you can help. If you find it acceptable, then please urge your representatives in government to support the effort.
Respectfully,
O.A.

If women do it a lot more than men, isn't that the problem? Or are you saying the difference is too little make a difference?
Is there any evidence that bambib is wrong?
Is she right? Is everyone afraid just talk facts with her because none of the facts are on your side?
Well done, dbhalling.
Now go read Lott's paper. Maybe you'll get a clue.
Name calling? I let people define themselves. I think I've given the reasons for any "name-calling" I've done. If the labels don't fit, feel free to refute them.
Intimidation? Really? Are you that much of a coward that you feel INTIMIDATED reading characters on a computer screen? Note, I ask. ARE you that much of a coward? It is for you to answer. Or not.
Making allowance for the individual? WTF does that mean? Do you expect me fudge the facts to suit some moron's whimsey?
Others will most likely judge on the basis of whether they "like" a given post. That's the female way. If they "like" it, it must be right. If they DON'T "like" it, it must be wrong.
Women, in general, LIKE welfare. Women LIKE the policies that are destroying America. Hell, women LIKE the fact that hundreds of thousands of criminal aliens flood our southern border.
I live in a different world - where whether I LIKE a fact or not has no value in determining the validity of the fact. Women may not LIKE the fact that 1+1=2, but that doesn't alter the fact. Women may not LIKE the fact that their voting patterns have doomed America - but it's no less a fact for their disapproval.
Frankly, I have more respect for a single person who engages on a FACTUAL level (even if they disagree with me) than I do for the entire universe of people whose version of reason is "what they feel" even if they DO agree with me.
Wrap your brain around that… and try again.
(Well, no, actually, I didn't KNOW it until you posted more rhetoric and refused to engage on a factual level… but I strongly suspected it. Thanks for making my case - but I really wish you hadn't been so lazy, dishonest and lacking in integrity. Sort of disappointing, really.)
I'm done.
Have a good night.
O.A.
