Subject: Tax reform Comment: Gentlemen: Roger Buchholz urges all Fairtax supporters to send you a message. I cannot word it better than he has himself. Therefore I am simply forwarding his argument in favor of shifting the basis of our taxation from income to spending. A. Kenneth Goldsby 4530 Vandalia Commerce, Mich. 48382 --------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Roger Buchholtz To: mifairtax@yahoogroups.com,mi.district.directors@fairtaxmi.org Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2005 14:11:02 -0400 MI FairTaxers, Now is not the time to say "I've done enough." Our Washington and Lansing legislators are now beginning to see The FairTax as a serious and real alternative to today's problematic tax codes. Now is the time to redouble our efforts. Call and/or write/fax/etc. your legislators and educate them on the FairTax and inform them how the American/Michigan public desires such a change. Convince them that we don't want hidden taxes in our prices but that we want to see these taxes on our sales slips. (Many politicians are afraid to have the citizens know all the taxes they are paying and want to continue including taxes in our prices by taxing businesses with income taxes/SBT, payroll taxes, etc.) Tell them that their dishonesty (in hiding these taxes) is costing American their jobs and that it is time to stop this practice before we have lost so much of our productive capacity that we can't recover Send a quick note or a long argument to the President's Tax Commission by using the Commission's website address below. Let them Know that we Americans are awake and we care!!! We only have until JUNE 10 to respond. Let's go get 'em! RogerGentlemen: Roger Buchholz urges all Fairtax supporters to send you a message.
