FairTax Fantasy

Dear Mr. Hewitt,
I was disappointed with the content of your radio interview with your fellow Chapman University Professor, Hank Adler, on April 21, 2009 about the FairTax. I read the transcript. If your interview is indicative of the content of your book, both contain numerous straw men and material omissions, the effect of which is to mislead the audience.

I have replied previously to a piece by Mr. Adler. You can read my November 26, 2007 piece, "A Harder Look at the Fair Tax," at
http://jbennettatty.blogtownhall.com/2007/11/26/a_harder_look_at_the_fair_tax3.thtml. My piece was in reply Adler's November 22, 2007 blog, "A Hard Look at the Fair Tax."

I will not reply to your interview point-by-point here. But if you send me a copy of your book at no charge, I will be glad to read and critique it for you.

Very truly yours,
~Jim Bennett
