Subject: FAIR TAX PROPOSAL Comment: IN MY OPINION THE "FAIR TAX" PROPOSAL IS CLOSEST TO WHAT THE PRESIDENT HAS ASKED FOR, FAIR, SIMPLE, REVENUE NEUTRAL AND ECONOMHY BOOSTING. THE ASPECT THAT I MOST LIKE, HOWEVER, IS THAT IT WOULD TAKE AWAY THE "BAG OF GOODIES" KNOWN AS TAX LOOPHOLES AND BREAKS THAT POLITICIANS USE TO BUY VOTES AND FAVORS, A THING THAT IS KILLING OUR ECONOMY AND CONTRIBUTING TO THE GENERAL PERCEPTION THAT THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS NOT FAIR TO ALL.
