ActionAmerica.org has finally bowed to the requests of many of our readers and published our popular
Tax Freedom Clock as a Flash-based web-widget that can be posted to other web sites, blogs, forums and social networking sites. Here it is.
Since it is designed as a widget, it is easy to embed the
Tax Freedom Clock on any web site for which you have access to the HTML source. You may find the instructions for this at
http://actionamerica.org/taxecon/tfdwebwidget.shtml. It involves only copying one line of code and placing that line in the HTML of your site, where you want the clock to appear, as I have done here.
Please use this widget wherever you post tax related articles and comments. This clock effectively converts
taxes paid, into
days worked, which drives home the seriousness of our tax problem. Of course, the more people who realize how much they really pay in taxes, the more support the FairTax will get.
