The idea behind the FairTax is very good.
I'm pointing out that the ideas in that book are nothing even the slightest bit original, and you'd be better off reading up on them from someone who isn't a blowhard talk show host.

The entire book will be Boortz taking shots at Liberals while espousing an NST. For what it's worth, I think an NST or VAT *is* better than our system.

I'm noting that all talk show hosts are loud-mouths.

I'm in favor of a NST and doing away with all other income taxes.

I'm agreeing, and saying my issue with said book is that he and the congressman he bought to do his bidding are claiming this is something revolutionary and radical, when in fact it's been proposed for many years and is in use in other countries.
