Subject: Current Tax Code replacement by FairTax Comment: I have been a taxpayer for over 40 years. There was a time when I did my own taxes but it has been impossible for at least the last 20 years due to convuluted rules and complexities that drive anyone who makes over $75,000 to require professional assistance. And now, even after paying high fees to accountants you end up saving no money due to the AMT! But of course you donm't know that until the accountant goes through the whole exercise. Our tax system has be out of control for decades and it time to fix it. The FairTax proposal with a national sales tax sounds like the right solution. I'm sure transition will be hard we have to bite the bullet and get rid of this current unfair, wasteful and ridiculous system we have allowed to evlove into an absolute fiscal, legislative quirgemire. |
