Comment: Dear Sirs, HR25 and S25 (The Fair Tax) solves EVERY problem you're looking to solve * It gets rid of the IRS * It makes business more efficient for not having to deal with tax compliance * It completely untaxes business (all taxes are passed on to consumers who buy the products anyway) making American Business ferociously competitive * It gets rid of the payroll tax while stabilizing Social Security * It gets rid of federal tax withholding (workers will take home all of their pay check) * The net cost of US goods and services (with the new sales tax added) will remain the same due to efficiencies in business and the removal of business taxes * It reduces payment collection points by 90% * It will practically eliminate tax cheating (estimated to be over 30% by the IRS currently) * It will tax the underground economy * It will reduce the cost of US produced goods and services by 25% (helping our crippling trade deficit) * It is progressive because of a tax 'prebate' to cover all essential purchases up to the poverty level * It taxes the wealth spent by the rich (which can greatly exceed their income) * It encourages savings which creates jobs so all will benefit THE FAIR TAX IS THE LEGACY THAT YOU WILL LEAVE FOR YOUR CHILDREN AND ALL GENERATIONS TO COME. Very Sincerely, Ben Doolin |
