I would guess that after a fair tax is implemented, everybody would be paying about the same as before..
..the point is that the most egregious tyranny that is operating in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave would be gone! No more April 15th....no more keeping little scraps of paper just to "prove" you are not a crook.....no more confiscation of your pay by someone else....you get it all. There is absolutely nothing standing in the way of Congress moving the max tax rate right now to 100% other than for the moment, we still are an armed population.
If God abandons us this election, and Hillary or Hussein Obama wins the Presidency, and the 'rats get the House and Senate...the 100% max tax rate will be a lot closer than you think.
Freedom is the issue here.....and as we all know.....
Freedom is not free.

Sorry Lewis that you don't understand freedom.One of us doesn't or we simply define it differently.
