Subject: FairTax

Comment: The FairTax offers the taxpayers a partial relief from large intrusive government by eliminating the 1040 and largely eliminating the IRS. It also reminds everyone at the cash register, just how much nanny government costs us. The FairTax is not regressive (as the tax lawyers, IRS workers, and poorly informed like to say), via the "prebate" paid on a monthly basis up to the poverty level. A.J.Billups, White Stone, VA
