Product Description

In 2005, firebrand radio talk show host Neal Boortz and Georgia congressman John Linder created The FairTax Book, presenting the American public with a bold new plan designed to eliminate federal taxes and the IRS, jump-start the U.S. economy, bring back lost industries and jobs, and recapture billions of untaxed dollars hoarded by criminal and offshore businesses. Their book became an immediate #1 New York Times bestseller, propelling a powerful grassroots tax reform movement that's spreading like wildfire across our nation.

Now, three years later, the authors are back to answer the outspoken and misinformed critics of their innovative proposal. Offering eye-opening new insights not covered in the original book, FairTax: The Truth debunks the negative myths and gross misrepresentations of this groundbreaking idea. The FairTax plan is simple, brilliant, and it will work—enabling you to keep all the money in your paycheck; eliminating the fraud, hassle, and waste of our current system; and revolutionizing the way America pays for itself.

4 out of 5 stars Fair Tax by Neal Boortz   September 2, 2008
Peggy in N. Carolina
This tax system is fair and definitely what America needs. It would help all economic levels. The IRS presents more problems to tax payers. The data processing people make incorrect entries and it costs Americans--------mostly small independent business people------thousands of dollars to try to correct the problem. Just when you think it is corrected, you receive another notification that you owe more interest and penalties for a problem you thought was solved. In the event you retire and move-----prepare yourself to hear from IRS again-----------from a new district. The Fair Tax is the way to go for everyone. The truly wealthy will pay their fair share of taxes. I doubt it ever happens as you will have lobbyists working for the Estate planning experts that set up family trusts to protect the money. As most of Congress is very wealthy they will not want to see a Fair Tax----------not even the so called liberals.

Read and pass on!
If everyone understood what this would mean to them, we could force the politicians to switch Federal taxation to the Fair Tax system, and we would all pay a lot less in Federal taxes! No more withholding or tax returns!!!



5 out of 5 stars Wish I could give it Ten Stars   August 23, 2008

Yes the subject is a little dry, but if you will read this and the companion book with an open mind, I believe you too will become a fervent Fair Tax supporter. Don't fall into the trap that this is just another giveaway for the wealthy. It is the single best way to tax wealth that I have ever seen. The reason Congress won't do this is it takes away their power and would put their spending under the public microscope. Congress wants to continue their pork barrel spending without having to answer to their boss, the American taxpayer.


5 out of 5 stars A must Read and share!   August 22, 2008

This is the first book I read about Fairtax. Then I got the DVD. Some people will not read a book but they will listen as they travel or commute. My husband is one of those people. Now we share one disc at a time with people.
Then I got America's Best Kept Secret: Fairtax Al Ose. Fantastic book!

We have got to spread the word. Do IT!



1 out of 5 stars Boortz is such a whiner. Like somebody's ex-wife.   August 5, 2008

I'm a conservative who has actually tried to listen to his show, but he really does come across like somebody's hostile ex-wife. Cry, complain, moan(then repeat.)

The Fair Tax is a great book for anyone who has never bothered to take an economics course, nor has done any independent reading. If your source of information is talk-radio, then this book is for you.

The biggest problem with the whole thing is that everyone's taxes would go SKY-HIGH (according to studies done and reported in the WSJ and CNN Money.)

I'd rather see a reduction in my taxes -- eliminate big government, reduce the military to a defense only capability (why police the world), and tax corporations that outsource jobs overseas.
