Glad to see Mr. Reagan weighing in on tax reform.

I have my own business. I pay quarterly estimates. I escrow 40 cents of every dollar my business brings in just to build up reserves to pay those quarterly estimates. It’s maddening to watch the money painstakingly grow in that account, knowing I can’t touch it, and every three months it vanishes.

If every American had to do that, we would never have allowed this monster to get out of control.

I agree with Michael Reagan - getting rid of the income tax is the way forward to a smaller government. A 23% national sales tax sounds right because people should know up front how much government really costs them every time they go out to buy something. The lesson is government is not free like everything else in life. Once the the money is spent, no refund. Its a good rule about the government you deserve.

In conducting research on the FairTax, I have become convinced of two things: the FairTax is the best way to create a new era of healthy American economic growth, and that my father would have been a strong proponent of the FairTax as a tax reform/replacement model had it existed during his time in government

Returning to the limited form of government Ronald Reagan espoused can be accomplished by eliminating the federal income tax code and the IRS with The Fair Tax Act! Fair Tax ping!
