Replacing the “progressive” income tax with a flat tax, is hardly a tax hike!
Imagine for a moment if, the next time you receive your paycheck; all that federal witholding is ... STILL THERE. It’s all yours. And you only pay tax on that, if you actually spend it.
Finally. Americans might actually save. As in, savings.
And regarding the “released inmate” mantra:
“The parole board was made up entirely of Democrats appointed by Democrat Governors Bill Clinton and Jim Guy Tucker (who was later convicted on federal charges and removed from office). Not one member of the board was appointed by Huckabee.”

Chuck Norris does not follow fashion trends, they follow him. But then he turns around and kicks their a**. Nobody follows Chuck Norris.
1 - the original income tax was 6% on income from $3-500K. Then Congress tweaked it, just like they would tweak the ‘fair tax’ - assuming you could ever get them to pass it in the first place. Running on the fair tax without explaining how you would pass it and how you would protect it from Congress is less than admirable.
2 - Huckabee strongly supported releasing Dumond. The parole board reversed their decision AFTER Huckabee announced his plan to pardon Dumond. And no democrats forced Huckabee to hand out pardons at a phenomenal rate.
And if Huckabee is elected, Congress will kick Chuck Norris’s rear end - and then raise taxes!
That is two good reasons why he should be leader of the free world. He is a Minister and Chuck Norris endorses him.
