Subject: Tax reform Comment: Greetings. I am a small business owner, a father, husband, and vetran of military service. I am and have been concerned with the current tax system since my teenage years(when I first started to educate myself regarding tax and government policy). It is my own humble opinion that the current system is very broken, and should be overhauled, not patched as has been attempted in the past. The best current idea hands down is the fair tax plan as outlined by Rep. John Linder of Georgia. Please become familiar with it prior to casting any judgment. It completely removes ALL federal tax burden (including Medicare, ss, etc.) from low income Americans, encourages savings and investment in the American economy by country's and individuals around the world. I hope you at least consider this simple, exceptional plan. Thank you for your time and service in the matter. Steve Keith. |
