Subject: Meaningful Reform a.k.a. Fairtax Comment: If the reports that came out today are any indication of what you are planing on presenting to the President your panel has truly been a complete waste of time. You have not addressed any way to reduce the burden of compliance that the current tax code puts on the American people. The only recommendations that you have so far seem to be raising taxes. In case you are not aware raising taxes by changing some rules and adding other limitations to exemptions does not reduce the burden of compliance, it only makes them greater. The only meaningful reform that the American people will stand for is a complete and total overhaul of the federal tax code. The Fairtax Plan does this and much more. I suggest that you read up on it. Derek Norris Tulsa, OK |
