From Tim Cox:

I hope that you will each take a short moment to vote in this poll. It is at TaxDayTeaParty and asks if we should support Republicans, Democrats, or a “third party”. The question is loaded, and I am always reluctant to call GOOOH a third party, but for lack of a better term that is what we are. We are a party only in the sense that we may need to form one to get on the ballot in certain states. However, the method by which we get on the ballot will vary by state and by the… Continue

They Lie!

FYI. The government now controls 30% of the once private wealth of the country. With the passage of health care as proposed, this rises to 48%. The dollar has lost 16% of its value since the Obama administration took office. Which means your savings are being decimated while they feel safe. H.R. 3962, the "Affordable Health Care for America Act" has been introduced--all 1990 pages of it. This gargantuan beast contains thirteen new tax hikes. W

We need the FairTax more than ever. They… Continue

GOOOH Gaining Momentum!

by Tim Cox, Author

Get Out Of Our House

Momentum continues to build at an accelerating rate. A third of a million visitors have now been to our Web site, almost 40,000 in the last month alone! We continue to land spots on radio all across the country. Another one hour television show has been recorded. Glenn Beck mentioned us on his radio show (for 30 seconds) saying, “Yeah, I've read that book. I don't agree with everything in it but it's a very… Continue

Be ready to talk about the FairTax

You have probably been getting updates from AFFT in Houston regarding the big media and membership push. Once this gets going we will not stop until the FairTax is the law of the land. This campaign will kick off as soon as they finish the fundraising necessary, which should be very soon. Perhaps a month or less.

We have to be ready at the grassroots level. We need to take an inventory, so to speak, of those among us who are willing to be speakers at meetings and gatherings. As the… Continue

Get Out Of Our House: Revolution!

FairTaxers! Finally there is a viable plan to get the FairTax done. “Texan” Tim Cox, M.B.A., has written a new book, “Get Out Of Our House: Revolution! A New Plan for Selecting Representatives”. The acronym for the book and organization is GOOOH pronounced, “GO!”. GOOOH is a plan to unseat all existing members of the U.S. House of Representatives and replace them with sponsored grassroots conservative candidates. I believe the plan can work.

The FairTax at The Asheville TEA Party

The FairTax had a great day at the TEA Party! We collected over $250 in donations for more supplies and just as many new signatures of support. I will be adding all these new names to our email list which brings us to 1000 people in WNC District 11 who support the FairTax! That should have some power with Heath Shuler who I will be inviting to sit down and talk with us again soon. Thank you so much to all those who chose to spend their July 4th afternoon volunteering to work for the… Continue

Income Tax, Fair Tax, Flat Tax Comparison chart

This is a great handout. I find it to be the best way to help people to see that there are only three ideas on the table right now in the form of current or proposed legislation. I advise them to review this comparison chart and then choose which one they want to support and then SUPPORT IT! The FairTax will always win.

See what you think. If you like it, save it to your favorites file, print more copies, and hand them… Continue
