Not a problem — you have kept the thread alive and added new perspective.
The reason there is so much difficulty in getting Congress and many Americans to support FairTax is PRECISELY BECAUSE FairTax will destroy the Progressive movement.
That is one of the major reasons I and many other Real Americans support it — Progressives have been attempting to destroy America since roughly 1900. They have very nearly succeeded.
It is likely that Real Americans will spend the next 100 years rebuilding America.
And, it starts with the FairTax.
For the sake of my children and grandchildren, and my countrymen and women, I hope and pray (and am working diligently to ensure that) we succeed.
If the bright light of FReedom is extinguished in the USA, as the Progressives are attempting to do, it will be hundreds of years before it is relit.
I would not wish a 21st Century Dark Ages on anyone!
I sure hope we can succeed in getting this in 2012 but the campaign for it must begin now. Let’s get some activism going?
