The Fair Tax supporters have rebuttals to the arguments being used against their proposal to replace Federal income and estate taxes with a national sales tax. 

CBO Releases Cost Estimates of ETI Repeal Bill – As with any such analysis, any resemblance to real life is purely coincidental.  Their static analysis methodology has long ago been so discredited that believing any of their predictions is crazy. Their entire presumption that tax rates cuts always cost the government money are ridiculous because the Reagan tax cuts proved that lower rates encourage more taxable economic activity and higher overall revenue.   

Group Asks IRS to Investigate Use of American Heart Association Logo – More proof that some people have way too much time on their hands.

JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SEEKS INJUNCTION AGAINST OHIO MAN WHO ALLEGEDLY SELLS IRS “DOCUMENT DECODER” SCAM

Indiana group assists anti-war tax protesters – As I’ve discussed on several occasions previously, I don’t advise anyone following the lead of War Tax Resisters Penalty Fund. There are plenty of things we all don’t like or support in the Federal government’s budget. What would happen if we each held back that portion of our taxes that paid for those things we don’t believe in? We would have even more chaos than we already have. That is what our elected officials are supposed to be doing on our behalf; deciding how to spend tax revenues.
