Howdy, Pilgrim! My Writers Room group's focus is on the writing process (or legal plagiarism) and your FairTax Internet Command group calls us to action. I'd like to formally partner my group with yours and so have asked my members to…

Pilgrim Proost replied to Jim Tomasik's discussion 'People are wondering what the FairTax is on a rather liberal blog site, please give them a hand.'

I just went there, and actually, I wasn't too surprised to find that they are not totally against the Fair Tax. In fact, what I read there seemed mostly positive (or at the least, neutral.)

Pilgrim Proost replied to Jay Garbarino's discussion 'FairTax - Not actually repealing the 16th amendment'

I have a question. Is there a good reason the Fair Tax Act of 2009 has this sunset provision built into it? Was the provision, for instance, put there as way of making the idea more palatable for fence-sitting Congressmen?

Pilgrim Proost replied to Jim Tomasik's discussion 'Sarah Palin?'

Heres an idea that just popped in my head. For the next big FT Convention, contact her a few months beforehand and just offer her a speaker's fee of $100,000.00. I'd not as principled as I used to be and if we gotta bribe people into…

Translation: 'We like the FairTax, but a flat tax would be easier!!' Translation for us: 'We want to repeat the errors of old!!' Newt for me is too political....'DDUUUHHH I know' I hear you say. But I'm no sick…

In case you guys weren't aware, Newt is a member of the Council of Foreign Relations, so I wouldn't be expecting too much from him. In fact, I'd run as fast as you can from both him and his organization, I'd consider it a trap:…

Thanks for the support Cary! Every time one of the staff at A.S., responds to one of my comments, someone else has always come to the defense of the Fair Tax. I think they get the message, but JUST don't want to hear it.

Sean Fagan replied to Pilgrim Proost's discussion 'American Solutions FINALLY states their position on the Fair Tax, sort of.'

I have become increasingly disappointed with Newt. I would have voted for him during the last election cycle but now he would not get my vote even if he was running as dog-catcher. Why? NY23 comes to my mind. And if he expects me to believe his…

> I went on and stated that your post was on topic, and put in a plug for the FairTax. I finished with REAL CHANGE REQUIRES REAL CHANGE, as it seems Newt doesn't understand hid own mantra.

Pilgrim Proost replied to Pilgrim Proost's discussion 'American Solutions FINALLY states their position on the Fair Tax, sort of.'

Well, I will say they're reasoning is still flawed. They just haven't put much thought into the matter has been my impression. "Ehhhhhh...why don't we just roll out the good ol' flat tax again! It has always worked for us…

Okay, I think the link is fixed...the one I originally posted didn't work for me either, but the new one is.

Hey Pilgrim, Good to have you back. Please fix your link!

American Solutions FINALLY states their position on the Fair Tax, sort of.

Members,I'm sorry for my extended absence. I've been focused on HAMMERING Newt Gingrich's Organization, American Solutions, for a direct answer on their position on the Fair Tax.Finally, they got SO annoyed with me, that I got a tart response from one of their staff in the comments section of one of their articles!!!! YAY!! Halla lu! Glory be!Members, NOW is the time to DESCEND upon American Solutions IN FORCE. They've discontinued their "Solutions Lab," but apparently they are PAYING ATTENTION…See More

Pilgrim Proost replied to Ken Weaver's discussion 'I'm wondering if there is a group concerned with fighting misinformation'

In that particular thread there are only 4 replies. And Sean said it best: "Blow hard." I wouldn't worry too much about misinformation in blogs or forums...there's a reason why bloggers are bloggers, and not economists, authors,…

My Writers Room group's focus is on the writing process (or legal plagiarism) and your FairTax Internet Command group calls us to action.

I'd like to formally partner my group with yours and so have asked my members to post any calls to action on your group.

Would you ask your members to post their best letters and writing tips to my group?

Thanks!

Welcome to FairTax Nation!

FairTax Nation a site designed and managed by FairTax volunteers to serve the needs of FairTax advocates by providing a place to share ideas, find resources and create new opportunities with the goal of passing the FairTax HR 25.

On Nation we are working on many projects. One is our 50 State Campaign. We want to link at least 1,000 active volunteers in each state to work together in a national effort to pass the FairTax. That would give us at least 50,000 active volunteers able to communicate, plan events, etc. I know some people want a FairTax rally in Washington D.C. This is how we build the organization to make this event and many others possible.

Please feel free to invite your FairTax friends to join us.

Thank you!
Marilyn Rickert
