Dear fellow FairTaxers,

Our founding fathers instinctively knew the evils of an income tax.  They knew from history how such a system could easily be manipulated to pit one group against another.

More importantly, they knew how an income tax could infringe on individual freedom.  Freedom was the most important element in our country's founding.  So, they prohibited an income tax in our constitution.

But, after several attempts in the late 1800s by politicians who…

While covering the RNC 2012 Convention in Tampa, FL, I met a great group of FairTax supporters and activists at an area Unity Rally. Left to right the names are: Ron Maiellaro, Nick Rudelic, Pam Reid, Pete Petzold, Elaine Maiellaro, Pete Adams, Barb Rudelic, Marco Bilante, Ray Budd, Donna Paget, Pat Gianinni, Rudy Treml and Jim Reid. Not in the photo but in attendance are Bob & Carol Mathews and Larry Walters.…

Have a standing petition list on the FairTax.org website where supporters can record their support. This is necessary so Americans for Fair Taxation can go to every Congressman and Senator in the country and actually show them the names of supporters in their districts and states.

It's too easy for our elected representatives to dismiss the Fair Tax Act saying that their "constituents don't support it." We have to be able to show the politicians that their constituents DO support the…

Tax code Reform:

Are you the rightful owner of the fruits of your labor?

If not you, who?

When someone takes something without permission of the rightful owner, what do you call it?…

income taxation. In fact, it wasn’t until the late 1800s, and the development of the Progressive-Marxist

movement, that a progressive income tax became established in academic thought. And it took until…

EXPANDING THE TAX BASE AND INCREASING REVENUE UNDER THE FAIR TAX

It’s been said by those “in the know” (both Democrats and Republicans) that “the United States doesn’t need more taxes – it needs more taxPAYERS”. Here are several sources for more taxpayers: Read the Full article by…

We have got to get Fair Tax supporters ACTIVELY pressuring candidates to go on record with what type of tax reform THEY support. It will not do us any good to fill the Congress with the 'other' party that wants to hold the power in DC. We need pro-active directors and coordinators paying attention to debate, townhall, meet and greet, and fundraising dinner schedules of these candidates and organizing a presence at these events wherein we can continue to press them on the issue of tax…

Marilyn,



Sec. 202 of HR25 creates a Sales Tax Bureau in the Dept. of the Treasury. The purpose of the bureau is coordination of the state administration of the federal sales tax. As you know, the states have all of the expertise in administering sales taxes, so the FairTax takes advantage of this by having the states collected the federal sales tax along with their state sales taxes. The states can do it much more efficiently using existing systems.
