    #448 The Rest of the Story - Part 2

    Today’s major news media have long abandoned any pretense that they have a responsibility to present the news in a fair and impartial manner.  What passes for “news” today is really reporters and editors trying to bring you around to their way of thinking.  Consequently, it’s no surprise that media outlets emphasize stories, ignore stories and tell only the parts of a story that fit the narrative they’re trying to push. With President Trump on record as favoring getting rid of the income tax, expect that more and more people are going to be looking at the FAIRtax as an alternative to the income tax.   This week, the FAIRtax Guys conclude their “The Rest of the Story” series telling you things about the FAIRtax that you likely will not hear in the legacy media.

    #447 Trump and the FAIRtax

    President Trump’s re-election gives us the best chance we’ve ever had to pass the FAIRtax.  This is the first time in history that a US President is on record as wanting to abolish the income tax.  We may not get another golden opportunity like this in our lifetime. This week, AFFT president Steve Hayes joins the FAIRtax Guys to discuss what a second Trump administration means for the FAIRtax and what we as grass roots FAIRtax supporters can do to help bring this historic shift in power from the government to the people to fruition.

    #446 The Rest of the Story - Part 1

    Research has shown that more and more Americans don’t trust the media to tell them the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.  Increasingly, both broadcast and print media outlets are emphasizing stories, ignoring stories and telling only the parts of a story that fit the political narrative they’re trying to push.   Consequently, it’s not surprising that there’s a lot about the FAIRtax that you won’t hear in today’s legacy media.  This week, the FAIRtax Guys begin a two part series detailing things about the FAIRtax that today’s media won’t tell you.

    #445 Tariffs or the FAIRtax

    On several occasions, Donald Trump has said he would like to eliminate the income tax system and use tariffs as the primary means of funding the government.  While it’s encouraging to see a major party Presidential candidate embrace the idea of getting rid of the income tax, are tariffs an appropriate replacement? This week, the FAIRtax Guys take on that question and explain why the FAIRtax would be much better replacement for the income tax than tariffs.

    #444 FTPR at WTOB

    On Sunday October 20, the FAIRtax Guys did their annual live show from the studios of WTOB Radio in Winston-Salem, NC. A live show gives the Guys the chance to do something they can’t do on their normal Zoom sessions—take calls and speak directly with listeners.  Almost from the instant the program went on the air, the phone was ringing and it didn’t stop for the entire 30 minutes.

    #443 The FAIRtax and Low Income Taxpayers

    It’s an objection we hear over and over again—"Sales taxes are regressive.  The FAIRtax will be a huge tax break for the rich and it will hurt the poor.”  That may be true for typical sales taxes, but the FAIRtax is NOT like other sales taxes. This week the FAIRtax Guys dig into the research library at fairtax.org and discuss an article written by economist Dr. Karen Walby.  Dr. Walby shows conclusively that while the FAIRtax does indeed benefit those with higher incomes, it’s those at the lower end of the economic scale that benefit the most.

    #442 Crazy Facts About Taxes

    Taxes have been a fact of life from the days of the earliest civilizations, and there have been some truly bizarre things within the realm of taxation.  But no tax system the earth has ever seen has been nuttier and more bizarre that the federal income tax system in the United States. This week, the FAIRtax Guys look at an article from 2017 outlining 71 mind blowing facts about taxation.  Not all of it relates to the federal income tax, but there are still plenty of reasons why the income tax should be scrapped and replaced with the FAIRtax.

    #441 Not Taxing Income

    The presidential candidates have come out in favor of exempting certain kinds of income from taxation.  Both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris favor not taxing tips.  Trump also favors shielding both Social Security benefits and overtime pay from the income tax. This week, AFFT president Steve Hayes joins the FAIRtax Guys to discuss what these positions mean for the FAIRtax.  If not taxing some kinds of income is a popular idea with those who receive that income, imagine how popular the idea of not taxing any income would be.
