Comments

Spank That Donkey writes:

Does this mean that the Federal system is better? How about a bill to abolish the Federal System altogether, and implement the Fair Tax?

Jim Duncan writes:

I second Spank's idea to implement the Fair Tax, although there are significant organizations that are very opposed to the concept, for so many legitimate and illegitimate reasons.
