Taxman,

I stated my reasons for objecting to the alleged fair tax, especially that it is a proposal for a massive expansion of what Congress may tax, allowing Congress to adopt a 23 percent tax upon the sale of newly manufactured property in addition to a 23 percent tax upon the sale of property which working people have in their labor, while the proposal keeps alive Congress’ power to lay and collect taxes calculated from profits, gains, salaries and other incomes. Why one would support such a massive increase in what Congress may tax is difficult to understand especially when it would create a dependent voting block under its family consumption entitlement which would dwarf the number of social security recipients. But that’s usually how progressives maintain their power in Washington. They keep creating voting constituencies dependent upon a government check, AKA bribing voters with money from the federal treasury, and the alleged fairtax would be the granddaddy of all entitlements.

BTW, does it not concern you that the founder of fairtax.org, Leo E. Linbeck Jr., is a past chairman and director of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, and former director of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas-Houston Branch, part of that thieving banking cartel which takes billions, upon billions of American Taxpayer dollars and launders them by sending them abroad to banks on foreign soil, and who now wants to expand what Congress may tax, expanding federal taxes to include a 23 percent tax upon the sale of newly manufactured property, and, a new 23 percent tax upon the sale of property which working people have in their labor, while keeping alive Congress’ power to lay and collect taxes calculated from profits, gains, salaries and other incomes?

If we can make the majority of America’s families dependent upon a federal government check, [the alleged fair tax’s family consumption entitlement] we can then bribe them for their vote, keep ourselves in power and keep the remaining portion of America’s productive population enslaved to pay the bills ___Our Washington Establishment’s Marxist game plan, a plan to establish a federal plantation and redistribute the bread which America’s labor and business has produced.

I do not need, nor will I read, your repetitive comments about why you don’t like the FairTax. Obviously, I think you are wrong, and I believe any attempt on my part to debate the issue with me would be like putting lipstick on a pig.

Answer my question: Who in Congress supports a tax system such as you promote, and what is the bill number?
