Rick, if you want me to educate Floridians on ”alternatives to the current system of federal taxation based on the following principles: fairness, simplicity, transparency, pro economic growth, and revenue neutrality”, I can do so.
It’s called Tax Honesty.

I haven’t filed or paid anything to the IRS-D.C. al Qaeda in 11 years. I am a law-abiding Nontaxpayer. I can’t support the corrupt Congress’ Plan B (the FairyTax) because why would I want to start paying 30% more for everything I buy, when April 15th is already just another day on the calendar for me and my family?
Rick, the FairyTax is the corrupt Congress’ Trojan Horse, to carry Taxpayers from the frying pan into the fire. Tax Honesty already has 67 million followers (that was the 2005 estimate of number of non-filers), but it does NOT offer ”revenue neutrality” because we don’t WANT to keep sending $3,600,000,000,000 to Congress every year; that’s five times as much as they need to exercise the limited powers we gave them in Article I of the Constitution!
”Revenue neutral” means that the FairyTax is a scheme whereby the corrupt Congress continues to siphon $3,600,000,000,000 annually from the productive sector of America. Plus then there’s the other $1 trillion that Taxpayers spend on compliance and avoidance. Socialism and state-sponsored terrorism must end. The FairyTax will not end it.
In fact, the FairyTax would turn every retailer into an IRS field collections agent. It will inspire grey-market and black-market retailing. Like the cost of a first-class postage stamp, the FairyTax could be raised any time Congress wants to, and as many times as it wants to — with virtually NO limit.
There is nothing wrong with the present Tax Code, and the IRS is just fine but ONLY if you make your IRS employees OBEY the law!
The FairyTax is the corrupt Congress’ Trojan Horse to fool ignorant Taxpayers who don’t know about the Tax Honesty Movement. Let’s push for Tax Honesty instead, Rick!
I know you mean well; I liked the FairyTax too, a decade ago when it was first proposed. Then I noticed how many politicians were supporting it…something didn’t smell right! Sure enough, just pick up the Trojan Horse’s tail, and sniff what’s hidden inside.
It ain’t good, Rick.
Let’s keep the Tax Code we have; it’s perfectly good law. As a law-abiding Nontaxpayer, I’ve studied it for over a decade. It’s not unconstitutional, and no — contrary to the tax industry propaganda, it doesn’t make most people liable. You just have to obey the law…and make sure your member of Congress, and employees at IRS obey the law, too!
