Wow, not bad for a guy who has a history of raising taxes.

Good for him!

I’d like to see something like this. The current tax code is so complicated that no one person can ‘know it’. If you search for loopholes and workarounds to paying taxes you will find them in most cases, but the time (and effort) to do so is simply not available to most people. It’s a complete mess to try and wade through.

Duncan Hunter is also strongly in favor of FAIR TAX.

I wonder who else is.

The only fair tax is an equal tax, where everyone pays the same amount.

Now if you believe in from each according to his means ... then all sorts of games and percentages come into play to convince the average Joe he is getting a break.

With one set amount the politicians can not divide and conquor the people, like they do when they get non-property owners to vote to raise property taxes, or when they get nonsmokers to raise taxes on cigarettes.

One man, one vote, one tax bill.

FairTax won't mean anything unless spending is addressed.

Huckabee's a big government so-con anyway.
