Comment: Members, Please consider elimination of the current income tax system and recommend implementation of a national sales tax along the lines S/HR 25 (the Fairtax). If America wishes to compete w/ China/India/etc. we need to improve the business climate. Elimination of embedded taxes in products will have companies from all over the world scrambling to set up shop here. Elimination of the IRS in the daily lives of the citizenry is a nice bonus.

Sincerely,

Thomas B Paine
