Fair Tax Campaign

The Fair Tax Campaign advocates for replacing the current income and payroll tax system with a national retail sales tax on new goods and services. Under this system, individuals would pay taxes only when purchasing items, making the tax structure simpler, more transparent, and encouraging savings and investment. The idea is to eliminate income taxes, corporate taxes, and the IRS, reducing compliance costs and potential for tax evasion while promoting economic growth. Supporters believe it would create a fairer system by taxing consumption rather than income, ultimately simplifying government revenue collection.
