The Fair Tax Book: Saying Goodbye to the Income Tax and the IRS

Wouldn't you love to abolish the IRS. . . . Keep all the money in your paycheck. . . . Pay taxes on what you spend, not what you earn. . . . And eliminate all the fraud, hassle, and waste of our current system? If so, the FairTax is for you! A smash #1 "New York Times" bestseller from the moment it went on sale, "The FairTax Book" launched a massive grassroots movement across the country with its dramatic call to rid Americans of the punishing burden of income tax. Talk-radio firebrand Neal Boortz and Congressman John Linder are leading the charge to replace the current tax system with the FairTax -- a simple 23 percent retail sales tax on new goods and services that would eliminate the reviled IRS and replace it with a system that's fair to all -- while jump-starting the U.S. economy, bringing businesses and jobs back to our shores, and recapturing billions of untaxed dollars currently lost to criminal and offshore businesses. Americans would get to keep 100 percent of their hard-earned paycheck . . . and April 15 would become just another beautiful spring day. Endorsed by scores of leading economists -- and gaining momentum in both the House and the Senate -- the FairTax Plan could revolutionize the way America pays for itself. Here -- revised and updated, with a new afterword by the authors -- is the straight-talking book that started it all.Boortz, Neal is the author of 'The Fair Tax Book: Saying Goodbye to the Income Tax and the IRS', published 2006 under ISBN 9780060875497 and ISBN 0060875496.
