I find it interesting that the opponents of the Fair Tax would want to keep the Karl Marx Income Tax.
Yes, Karl Marx is the father of income tax
I am no Huckabee fan, but the FairTax is a much better way to raise revenue without punishing achievement.
I dont know about you, but a tax proposed by John Linder and Neal Boortz is a helluva lot better than a tax proposed by Karl Marx
A national American income tax was first proposed during the War of 1812. Karl Marx was born in 1818.
Fair Taxers live to lie.
As long as the government spends as much as it does, no tax system will make anyone happy, unless they pay less than they collect in benefits.
I’m no fan of Huckabee. I despise some of his positions, but none of the other candidates have given me ANY reason to vote for them. I might just have to hold my nose and vote for Huckabee.
A tax on consumption will certainly fund our socialist programs more efficiently and with less political risk than a tax on income. Matter of a fact, HR25, like HR2525, and its prebate provisions, makes socialist programs accessible to more people than ever before.
Sorry, the income tax predates Karl Marx by a couple hundred years. Try again. (Typical FT/TP - Doesn’t know history, and doomed to repeat it.)
