Have you guys heard about this proposed FairTax?
Sounds pretty cool to me as a US citizen and as a business owner. Their website says that if put into effect it would "abolish federal personal and corporate income taxes, gift, estate, capital gains, alternative minimum, Social Security, Medicare, and self-employment taxes and replaces them with one simple, visible, federal retail sales tax administered primarily by existing state sales tax authorities."
They even have this handy Calculator that estimates what your tax burden is currently and what it would be under the Fair Tax plan.
Their website goes on to say:
"The FairTax taxes us only on what we choose to spend on new goods or services, not on what we earn. The FairTax is a fair, efficient, transparent, and intelligent solution to the frustration and inequity of our current tax system.
The FairTax:
Enables workers to keep their entire paychecks
Enables retirees to keep their entire pensions
Refunds in advance the tax on purchases of basic necessities
Allows American products to compete fairly
Brings transparency and accountability to tax policy
Ensures Social Security and Medicare funding
Closes all loopholes and brings fairness to taxation
Abolishes the IRS"
Just interested if any Fastlaner's have looked into this...
