Posted at 9:43pm on Dec. 30, 2007 Congress - Tear Down This Wall

By fairtaxwarrior

Ronald Reagan, with a similar phrase in 1987, summed up the yearnings of freedom-loving people everywhere. It was perhaps one of the most meaningful phrases in history.

So why would I presume the right to steal a phrase from possibly our greatest President? Because it’s just so applicable to the insidious barrier erected, and still in place, within this country.

The wall I speak of has been built and extended by Congress and has the endorsement of all the major candidates for President in 2008, with the sole exception of Mike Huckabee.

Posted at 7:36pm on Oct. 12, 2007 Election Reform Key to 3rd Party Ever Having a Chance

By fairtaxwarrior

As someone who admittedly does not care for Democrat or Republican parties, I think I share a dilemma with millions of Americans. Presidential elections have become primarily an exercise in voting for the lessor of two evils.

In 2004, for example, a conservative citizen had to vote for President Bush (who made drunken sailors look fiscally conservative in comparison) or feel they were throwing the election to John Kerry.

Posted at 10:35pm on Oct. 8, 2007 Income Tax Cuts are Chicken Feed

By fairtaxwarrior

One of the things that infuriates me most is so-called Conservatives whose whole fiscal policy consists of the words 'I favor Spending Cuts'.

Few have any details except that there is STUFF they think oughta be CUT. Don't bother them with boring details like what they would cut and by how much. Ssssh. 'That does not win votes'.

Well, there is bunches that need to be cut. Let's try EVERYTHING that supports STUFF not mentioned in The Constitution.

For some reason many Americans seem unable to grasp the enormous economic benefits to be derived from shifting ALL Federal funding from an Income Tax system to a consumption tax like The FairTax. There is absolutely no case for keeping the current (or any) Income Tax system, but most Americans refuse to even discuss the possibility that their government has misled them on taxation for so long (approximately 90 years now).

Posted at 1:23am on Oct. 7, 2007 Income Tax Ignorance

By fairtaxwarrior

I'm a passionate supporter of The FairTax, but this piece is not about that specifically. That’s a policy issue. I have NO doubt it is the best policy, but everyone has to come to that conclusion on their own.

I want to talk about IGNORANCE. Not ignorant people, per se, but ignorance about a slow cancer that has been perpetuated as gospel by U.S. Government leaders for nearly a century now. That cancer will lead this country to abdicate its world leadership role to China within the next decade. That cancer will bankrupt our Social Security and Medicare system within 2 decades.
