FreedomWorks is organizing the Teaparty Patriots to support the deathly flattax. Stop them for the Fairtax

Walt Bagley ~

I went to a tea party event the other evening. There was a talk on the FairTax followed by a talk on the flat tax. Followed by a Q & A session. The flat tax was presented by the state director for Freedom Works. He said he thinks the FairTax is a great idea "BUT". He said you have to repeal the 16th amendment first but there has only been one amendment that was ever repealed. The process is too hard. We would not want to have both the FairTax and then have Congress introduce a new income tax during the seven year period we are trying to repeal the amendment. A flat tax would be easier to pass through Congress. He did say he was not promoting HR-1040 but did not have an actual bill for a flat tax.

My comment:

We have witnessed the Freedomworks Group leaders bury a polling done on what is the most important issue. Fairtax gained 90%<> support and the closest competitive plank was flattax at 7%. There has been an underlying fear of this group not being true to the Patriot cause. Now we have evidence .  The Flattax was used by President Reagan when he gave us freetrade to counter the effects of a closed border tax in an open border trade policy. We have witness the effect of leaving the same tax structure in place by streamlining it.  Congress has sold lobbyists over 1,200 amendments to the Reagan flattax. Now we have what appears to be an stealth RINO group attempting to stir us into the same destructive plan.

 We have lost jobs steadily since free trade was implemented and we have seen our Nations deficit spending increase every year, even in what they claimed to be prosperous years.  We have been told service jobs will replace our lost industry, that high tech industry will sustain our growth fiscally. None of this was true.

The question must be asked, why would our smartest leaders in Washington act so dumb? What is their mission?  It certainly is not for the benefit of the American people, either party.  If you step back, you will see how both parties have danced us down this road of socialism until we are now on the brink of fiscal collapse. Ask yourself, why would DC not change when the GOP gain the two branches Under President Bush43. It upset the puppet master who found his strings suddenly all wound up. So what became the mission, pork pork pork. 

Let us not let our new found wakeup teaparty Patriot mission be stirred into the ditch. Stand against this attempt to squish our path to liberty and freedom. With Fairtax, be sure to follow up with Constitutional conduct. Begin by reducing non entitlement spending 10% every year until it is cleaned up. Enact Fairtax to gain back our industry, Make a date certain with a 25 yr plan to transition all entitlements back to the States our the individual by recommending private HSA/IRAs locally invested.  This will end unconstitutional action by the Federal Government, reducing their taxation by over 90%, leaving we the people and our States the revenue needed to do what is the power entitled by the Constitution.

State legislatures need to be held accountable for their actions in nullifying the tyrannical coupe by the Federal Government. In them lies the immediate Power to get this done. The Article five of the Constitution holds the key to control over our Federal Government. The preached fears of a Constitutional Convention destroying the Constitution is false. Any resolution in that Convention must meet the approval of 38 State legislatures. That is a far less threat then the Coupe that is happening right before our eyes.  Remember the frog in a cold water filled frying pan, who did not see the change in temperature until he cooked to death. Our apathy has near destroyed us. Jump People, for our Liberty!!!

Here is undeniable proof Freedomworks is for keeping the corrupting current tax structure and leaving the federal taxes embedded in American good:  http://t.co/RwQyTQD

Why FairTax will save Michigan Fiscally~Editorial to LSJ

Under the National FairTax plan, a product now costing $1.00 today will, under National FairTax, cost $.96 if manufactured in the USA and will cost $1.23 if imported.

A domestic product of $1.00 cost before FairTax will cost  $.78 under FairTax.  FairTax calls for a 23% tax to replace the unconstitutional spending at the Federal level.  Thus, $.78 *$.23=$.18 will be the federal sales tax.  Therefore, a $1.00 item before FairTax will be $.96 under Fairtax with tax included, a four percent reduction in product and tax total. 

The foreign imports now under our current tax at a $1.00 cost, will cost $1.23 under fairtax. This is not a form of excise on foreign  gods, but is making Free Trade, Fair Trade.

In just computing the FairTax implemented at the Federal level, that is a 27% decrease in USA manufacturing cost in comparison to foreign import costs.  How many manufacturing jobs will that bring back to USA?  How many jobs will Michigan and other States be able to gain, if they too implement the Michigan FairTax Plan?

 If Michigan adopts MIFairTax, the cost of Michigan products will be reduced more by elimination of the 22% MBT, personal property tax and income tax. How much of an advantage would this give Michigan in job creation, if Michigan will but adopt the MIFairTAx.org plan which Former State Representative Fulton Sheen sponsored?  Call on conservative Democrats and Republicans, "put Michigan first, not your Party and it's bosses, Lobbyists." 

Speaking of Lobbyists, how many Lobbyists will lose their job by not having to bribe Congressman for loopholes to protect their rich clients?

Incidently, all congressman, Federal and State, would change their allegance if we would change campaign finance law to wit:  'Only registered voters can contribute to any candidate's campaign.'
