APRIL 15 IS TAX DAY. I am not a single issue voter. I’m a registered Independent at the DMV. I am not prepared to give an unfair and growing amount of my earnings to the Federal Government. I want to put the IRS out of business with THE FAIR TAX!

HOW the FAIR TAX WORKS:

• You get rid of income tax.

• You get rid of inheritance tax.

• You get rid of all the withholding.

• You get rid of corporate taxes completely, totally. After all – those taxes are not really paid by the corporations. They’re passed on to the customer with a 22 percent embedded tax in the system.

• You eliminate that, which means the prices of what you purchase will go down.

• You replace it with a 23 percent consumption tax. Now, that sounds expensive, but you only pay when you purchase something new, whether it’s a product or a service.

• Also, It’s a completely transparent tax system.

• It doesn’t increase taxes. It’s revenue neutral. It will bring business back to the United States that leaving our shores – our current, complicated, unfair tax laws make it impossible for an American-based business to compete with lower tax structures in other countries.

Don’t tell me something this “sweeping” can’t be passed. With your help… it can, and it will.

Let’s get HR 25, S 296 respectfully called upon by the Ways and Means Committee to conduct a fair, open public hearing, allotting 50% of the time each to the proponents and opponents on or about Tax Day April 15, 2010, and then send H. R. 25 to a vote of the entire House of Representatives. TAKE ACTION!

I also advise creating a login at http://www.opencongress.org/ to review your options for GETTING INVOLVED in all of Congress’s legislation. I wrote about this previously on this blog here.
