Pay taxes on what you spend, not what you earn ... And eliminate all the fraud, hassle, and waste of our current system? Then the FairTax is for you. In the face of the outlandish American tax burden, talk-radio firebrand Neal Boortz and Congressman John Linder are leading the charge to phase out our current, unfair system and enact the FairTax Plan, replacing the federal income tax and withholding system with a simple 23 percent retail sales tax on new goods and services. This dramatic revision of the current system, which would eliminate the reviled IRS, has already caught fire in the American heartland, with more than six hundred thousand taxpayers signing on in support of the plan. As Boortz and Linder reveal in this first book on the FairTax, this radical but eminently sensible plan would end the annual national nightmare of filing income tax returns, while at the same time enlarging the federal tax base by collecting sales tax from every retail consumer in the country. The FairTax, they argue, would transform the fearsome bureaucracy of the IRS into a more transparent, accountable, and equitable tax collection system. Among other benefits, it will:
Endorsed by scores of leading economists and supported by a huge and growing grassroots movement, the FairTax Plan could revolutionize the way America pays for itself. In this straight-talking book, Neal Boortz and John Linder show you how it would work—and how you can help make it happen. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Sometimes the simple ideas are best......not that any tax plan is really simple, mind you. This book is a great introduction to HR25 (the FairTax bill). It covers the history of the income tax, the current state of our tax code, and then promptly and easily details a relatively simple and effective solution to many problems our economy faces today. Using facts, figures, real data, and some humor, Boortz and Linder explain the reasons we will all benefit from this plan, and the reasons some politicians don't like it. This and the ... Read More Rating:  - THE IMP OF CONGRESSThe passage of a fair tax as explained by Boortz and Linder depends on Congress keeping it free of exemptions to it. I would not plan on the Congress doing so. There would be too much money available for Congressmen if they gave exemptions to selected industries, agencies and individuals. I doubt that they could resist the temptation. I would have to see it before I would believe it. However, I want to say that, if a Fair Tax law would be enacted, even if it ends up costing me more than I pay ... Read More Rating: - An Easy Read. Do it. Don't take anybody else's word for it.Who would have thought a book about taxes would actually be easy to read? I suppose that underscores the simplicity of the consumption (as opposed to our current production) tax. Although, just once, won't someone write about economics without employing the venerable widget? The plan makes sense which may be it's downfall, unless enough citizens demand it. Politicians aren't simply going to surrender their power back to us unless we make them. It's what is making them rich. ... Read More Rating: - EASY TO READThis is the first time I've ever left a review. I've just got to offset some of those one star reviews since I'm sure that only 23 percent of the people who gave it one star actually read the book. By the way, I am talking about an inclusive 23 percent. I think this book should get at least 3 stars even from opponents of the fairtax. It's one of the easiest books to read. It's entertaining, funny, and just informative even to the person who hates good ideas. Get the book and call ... Read More Rating: - The Best Thinking on the American SceneThe Fair Tax is a profound concept to fully fund the federal government without confiscating personal and business property - taxing income. An embedded national sales tax replaces all federal taxes on income - even those income taxes by another name (payroll taxes, capital gains, etc.) Getting one's head around an income-tax-free United States isn't always easy. Fortunatley Boortz and company present the logic, the common sense, the incredible personal, social, national, and economic benefits of ... Read More
