10% Economic Growth, Job Growth, Major Tax reform(Fair Tax)
RS RedState.org ^ | 8/9/05 | Merrill Bender

Posted on 08/09/2005 5:27:03 PM PDT by Man50D

According to the new Best Selling Book by Neil Boortz and Congressman John Linder, " The Fair Tax Book", out of the 100 little answers that make replacing the income and payroll taxes with the Fair Tax, the number one or biggest answer is "GROWTH". Growth in the economy means better jobs and better pay, it means increased tax revenue for important programs like Medicare and Education. And revenue to balance the budget or pay down the National Debt. (p.106) "Economists estimate that in the first year after the Fair Tax Act becomes law, the economy will grow by 10.5%. Exports will grow by 26 percent. And capital spending will increase by more than 70 percent."

Due to this new tax structure, companies will want to build new plants here in the U.S. That means better paying jobs for American workers and a Stronger American Economy. US Shores become a tax-Free zone and Corporate headquarters and Captial spending will flow back to the US.

Though the Fair Tax has many supporters and web site advocates, It is important to get the correct facts and benefits laid out in one book for politicians, pundits and average Americans to study and understand. The President's panel on tax reform will present its report in late Septemeber. All indications are they will not nibble at the edges at the archaic tax code we have today but provide a bold change that is positive for the economy. The Fair Tax is the only Legislative package (HR25/S25) that provides all those positive answers that American families, American workers, American business and the American Economy need.

Hope you will pick up your copy of the "Fair Tax Book" by Neil Boortz. Share an extra copy with a friend and be ready this Fall for the Tax reform debate. Know the Facts and why the Fair Tax is the better choice. Better than the Flat Tax. Better than a VAT and certainly better than the current 10,000 page plus tax code and regulations we deal with now.

With the Fair Tax take home 100% of your paycheck with no federal income tax or payroll tax taken out.

Those that know the Facts love the Fair Tax. http://www.fairtax.org

I'm going to have to do some reading. I don't know at this point -- Fair Tax or Flat Tax...or maybe neither...but we need something better than what we have now.

Gee! How will politicians play off one group against the other if we all have the same tax?

Oh wait, they still control which groups will get government largess....

Oh well, its a start...

The flat tax is still a tax on income-- a MARXIST idea.

The Fair Tax is a tax on spending. Worlds apart.

Democrats prefer recession and more government intervention.

They don't want anything fair .

They don't want more wealth creation.

They want to keep their people poor and dumb...just like the Taliban.

Thanks for the explanation. Someone said a while back that every taxpayer supports five more people -- not five members of your family, but five strangers. That's just entirely too much. Time for the free rides to end and put in something equitable in their place.

You want 10% growth.

1. Ban all outsourcing
2. Put a 500% tax on goods and services outsourced overseas
3. Put all Gobernment on a 50% cut
4. Send all undocumented illegals back to where they came from. Also, implant an RFID on them that will kill them when attempting to remove.
5. Seal the borders
6. Bring our troops home
7. Repeal NAFTA and CAFTA

Whether it's a tax on income or tax on spending, the money still comes out of your earnings.

By the way, when does the government collect for the services that it provides.

You have to get that book that Boortz just wrote. Or at least spend some time over at fairtax.org. It's a beautiful plan!

It's time to do some research.

Your post is inane.
