Hi
This writing will try to explain some of the advantages of a flat or fair tax. Simplicity is the biggest advantage but there are other equally valuable reasons to enact such a tax.
The flat or fair tax would curtail government spending. Imagine congress limited to how much "pork" comes from DC. Wow. Because the unnecessary spending would be cut it follows that the deficit would also be lessened. In time economic growth would eliminate the deficit altogether. We need this edge to stay competitive on the world economic stage.
Another advantage a flat or fair tax would give is the effect on term limits. Congress would not have as much power derived from taxation, hence, the influence on our lives would be diminished. Because the flat or fair tax would not be subject to special deductions and credits,the need for lobbyists would also diminish. Again this means more control is ceded back to the people. We would take steps back to "government of the people, by the people and for the people". I'm sure Mr President Lincoln would love that.
Now let me ask you to pray for our service people.
GOD Bless
