I see that you don't have any idea about the difference in a flat tax and the Fair Tax which is a flat tax. Maybe you need to avail yourself of all the information available on the internet about what the Fair Tax is. I was against it for some time and then one day found out that with it there would be no other federal tax. It would work and most people, top to bottom, would benefit from it if it could be used.

Thanks Roy; If we could get more people to do minimal research on The Fair Tax, I think we could get a huge majority supporting that plan. People just don't seem to understand how it would work because they have never looked into it.

Just one clarification. The Fair Tax is a "flat tax" in that it is a flat rate across the board for everyone since it is based on consumption. The "flat tax" supporters though, are all talking about reforming the income tax while leaving it as an income tax (therefore subject to all the abuse and misuse we now see.) The Fair Tax is, in effect, a national sales tax... a consumption tax. This fits much more smoothly with the Constitution than any income tax scheme, flat or otherwise.

Like you, I really like the fact the The Fair Tax wipes out all other Federal taxes, and with them, the IRS. Another favorable feature is the "prebate". Someone has really done their homework on that idea to make if fair for all tax payers at all economic strata. Another thing, I really like the fact that only new items are taxed. Used items, such as automobiles etc. are exempt. This thing gets better and better as you look more deeply into it. I wish it had a chance of passing.

Thanks again for your work and reporting on your findings about the Fair Tax.

A flat tax is still a tax on income. It therefore continues the power for social manipulation in any income tax scheme. This is the basis of power for the PTB.

Anyone, except the PTB, of course, who spends a minimal amount of time studying The Fair Tax will see that it is the best plan for tax reform. There is no down side to it. Take any argument you may have against it and sift it through the expositions of this plan online and you will not find any argument will hold up. Go read anything you can find on HR 25, which has been in process since 2005, and see what you think.

The only people against The Fair Tax are the politicians, who can see that it is the end of their power structure. Of course the IRS is also against any such tax reform because The Fair Tax abolishes the IRS immediately. It means they, the politicians and IRS, will no longer have the power to manipulate their desired ends by playing with the tax code. So, that means it is unlikely to ever happen. But don't give up.

Get behind The Fair Tax, HR 25, and reject any "flat tax" proposals and let's see what happens.

Tasine -- I'd be more than happy to take it back. Tell me what to do besides what I already do that will get it back for me. And if you say "b****t box", I'll scream out loud. Until we can wean conservatives away from the Republican Party, we are doomed to a one party system. The R. Party abandoned conservatives a long time ago - it took me years to see it, but once I saw it, I registered as a Libertarian. I v**e for individual freedoms, nothing more, nothing less.

So be it. I'm tired of worrying about being called a r****t or anything else. The term has ceased to have any meaning. "They" have used it up.

I'm proud to be with Colin Flaherty who works tirelessly to keep the t***h out in front, risking the "r****t" label constantly. If he can stand for the t***h, I can only stand with him.

I'm told that "slander" is not actionable if it is the t***h. If I'm called a r****t for telling the t***h, I expect that would be under the same principle. I only have to stay friendly with the guy in the mirror. That is a hard enough job on many days, without letting some i***t tell me how he thinks I should view myself.

Did you have a chance to look at Mr. Flaherty's compendium of black on white violence? Scary ... and infuriating.

Thanks for listening to me.

Thank you, AuntiE;

If Trayvon Martin had succeeded in k*****g George Zimmerman, we would not have heard anything about it after a page 10 blip.

Colin Flaherty has been putting a lot of journalistic work into keeping black on white assault in the forefront. This is epidemic and a bad situation. The media silence is d********g.

Research "The Knockout Game". You'll find a raft of stories about this black on white "game". Then you'll have to wonder why you don't see these on the evening news, with film at 11. O'Reilly started to report a horrible story out of Norfolk, VA a while back but abruptly dropped it. Probably too busy "looking out for the folks". Or something. The story IIRC, was about a couple of white reporters for the local newspaper out on a date who were attacked by a black mob. The editor, for whom they worked, refused to publish the story. The police stonewalled it too... it was getting close to tourist season.
