Smoosiers For Fair Taxation

Information

Smoosiers For Fair Taxation

The plan is a comprehensive proposal that replaces all federal income and payroll based taxes with an integrated approach including a national retail sales tax, a prebate to ensure no American pays federal taxes on spending up to the poverty level.

Welcome, the only requirement is.................

This site is for true people who look at our economy with a simple mind. If you want to join, the only requirement is to clear the mind of what you hear about taxes and look at the hard facts. Money and taxes are not hard to understand. Many people want you to feel stupid and just say "Trust us, we will take care of your tax dollar for you." In the end, where has that gotten us.

I started this group because of my desire for our tax system to change. I will accept all questions and comments. I will accept good debate, but if you open on personal attacks, your done.

This plan is for true shifting of power back to the citizens and away from the government.

Welcome once again.

Hey Everyone, I am the Assistant State Director for FairTax Indiana. I encourage everyone to visit infairtax.org and get involved with the Indiana movement to get all of our representatives on board the FairTax.

Is it time to resurrect this? The new Congress won't be easy but, 2010 is not that far off. Here's a BHAG--get 100 million copies or so printed and distributed to every person making more than the $42,000 new tax hike level. Maybe we could convince him to do what is now done to the classic, Think and Grow Rich, a free PDF file so we can distribute it free far and wide.

I just wanted to say Hi to a number of people in this group. Isn't it amazing how you can come in contact with people with such opposite ideas on certain topics (as many of you and I have done) and yet come together on such a big topic and think alike?

I'm very interested to continue monitoring this discussion group and keeping up to date on what is going on.

Has anyone promoted any ideas on how we can actually get this through Congress? It won't be easy.

I think it needs to start at the state level (Congress is made up of reps from the states!). So, let's get the local Senators and Congressmen in line on this. If they aren't, let's work to get them out and others in who do want this!

My company is expanding into all 50 states right now, and I plan to push my employees to be active on this topic specifically in their own states.

I look forward to future discussions.

FYI, both books are wonderful reads!!

FairTax...So simple, a 5th grader can understand it!

Boortz's new book is great. Having just done my taxes, I am ready for the FairTax!
Kirk Booher Comment by Kirk Booher on March 23, 2008 at 11:20pm
It so simple and a beautiful idea. Neil Boortz is right on this one. I bet Mitch Daniels would be in support of this. Does anyone know what his position is?

Great idea, I have read the Fair Tax book (the original one) and love the idea! I always hear people say that it won't work, but I firmly believe it will.

Steve - you might think about renaming the group - Hoosier (or Smoosiers) for Fair Taxation.
