The TEA Party rank and file overwhelming support the FairTax but now that Dick , flat tax, Armey and his Freedomworks organization have wormed their way into the TEA party structure the leadership is not to be found on the issue!
Perhaps we can take Dick Armey and his flat tax buddies to the FairTax woodshed?
I have been dueling with him since the Tauzin Armey debates of the mid 1990s. FRankly, Bigun, I am still amazed that he doesn’t “get it.” I mean, after all, surely he doesn’t much care for the IRS. And, surely, he stands for FReedom, doesn’t he?
What is FRee about a tax system that retains the, as noted many times over, very abusive IRS?
It is high time we put the notion of a “flat income tax” to bed!
We will never be a FRee people as long as we have an income tax and an IRS!
