I have heard a news talk show host discussing the "fair-tax" paln which is making its way to DC now. From what I gather it basically is a consumption tax on goods. It is set at a flat 23% inclusive rate.
It would put a lot of lobyists and possibly some IRS agents out of work (the latter would still be needed to monitor black market sales shops), but other than that I could live with that. It would also make those who do not pay taxes currently (illegal immigrants, drug dealers, etc..) pay their fair share.
If you like the idea, you should contact your local and state officials and let them know.
Time for a FAIR TAX
