Default Re: \"Fair Tax\"-a better alternative than \"Flat Tax\"

[ QUOTE ]
I suppose I don't understand-- what is taxed under the "fairtax" ? Are income levels irrelevent? That seems like a bad idea if so..

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, income will not be taxed, spending will. I think the idea of being penalized for achieving wealth is bad. The more money you earn the more you pay in tax. So the current system rewards those underachievers.

Read this story from Neal Boortz Reason for the fair tax

And check out the Fair Tax Volunteer web site to answer all your questions and then buy the book.
