Subject: Your pathetic solution to Tax Reform...

Comment: To whom it may concern, regarding the “Tax Reform”, aka Tax Increase on the Wealthy, that our esteemed Tax Reform Panel brought out of its lengthy study:

It is quite obvious that politics, as of now, is the most powerful force in Washington. Prior to the next election, I will be a part of a grassroots effort to make the people of America the most powerful force in Washington. I have always frowned upon single issue voting, but rest assured, this next election, I will vote for candidates that support the Fair Tax Plan. I don’t care if they are Republican, Democrat, or Communist. The ONLY reform plan that was presented to you that made sense(the Fair Tax Plan), was cast aside, along with others, as bad ideas. I don’t believe you understand what you have set yourselves up for. Your weak attempt at making your Panel look useful, will be used against you in any office you seek from here on out.

If you, or any Washington insider, do not have the guts to tell these lobbyists that you are doing what is right for the country, rather than what is right for your ability to obtain campaign contributions, then you don’t have what it takes to represent me.

I was a part of the Bush election and reelection. If a Democrat comes out as a presidential candidate, and he or she supports the Fair Tax Plan, he or she will have my vote for president at the next election. Plain and simple. President Bush has not made an effort to express any support for our plan either. He will not, nor will the Republican National Committee, get any of my efforts or money, until they do what is right and support the Fair Tax plan.

It is not like we are sponsoring a bill that will hurt someone. It is the most fair and visible tax system ever devised. If we were asking you to legalize murder it would be one thing, but for you to thumb your noses at a wonderful answer to our tax reform issues, is ridiculous.
