#429 The FAIRtax Book - Part 7
17 JUL 2024 · The income tax is ridiculously easy to evade. The latest estimates say that illegal tax evasion costs the government around $1 trillion a year. A large part of the evasion problem is the fact that billions of dollars of income goes unreported. Drug dealers, prostitutes, and those working for cash off the books aren’t subject to withholding and don’t file 1040 forms. But those people buy things.
This week, the FAIRtax Guys dissect chapter 10 of the FAIRtax Book and look at how the FAIRtax finally makes taxpayers out of those who make their living in the underground or offshore economy.
#428 The FAIRtax Book - Part 6
10 JUL 2024 · The FAIRtax is unlike any other sales tax on the planet in that it does not tax every dollar someone spends. How can that be when the tax is included in the retail price of all new goods and services? Enter the FAIRtax prebate.
This week, the FAIRtax Guys discuss the most important chapter in the FAIRtax book—Chapter 9, the prebate. This amazing feature is what makes the FAIRtax a fair tax by ensuring that no one pays the tax on the purchase of basic necessities.
#427 The FAIRtax Book - Part 5
3 JUL 2024 · In the first six chapters of the FAIRtax Book, authors Boortz and Linder cover a variety of problems with the current income tax system. This includes topics from withholding to how the income tax inflates the prices of all of the goods and services we buy.
Beginning with chapter seven, the focus shifts to the FAIRtax. This week, the FAIRtax Guys explore the origins of the FAIRtax and begin to explain its basic structure.
#426 The Moore Case Ruling
26 JUN 2024 · Prior to 2017, income had to realized before it was taxable. However, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act contained a repatriation provision that made certain unrealized income taxable. The constitutionality of that tax was challenged in court and just recently, the Supreme Court handed down its decision.
This week on FAIRtax Power Radio, tax attorney and AFFT president Steve Hayes joins the FAIRtax Guys to break down the decision and discuss what it means for the future of taxation in the United States.
#425 The FAIRtax Book - Part 4
19 JUN 2024 · The FAIRtax Guys continue their journey through Boortz and Linder’s original FAIRtax book, published in 2005.
This week, they tackle a subject that escapes most people’s attention—the embedded costs of the income tax system that are passed on to consumers in the prices of everything we buy. We never see them. They’re not listed on any receipt, but they are there nonetheless. In fact, a surprisingly high percentage of what we pay for both goods and services today ends up at the IRS.
#424 The FAIRtax Book - Part 3
12 JUN 2024 · The FAIRtax book by Neal Boortz and John Linder is the definitive work highlighting the problems with the income tax system and presenting the FAIRtax as the elegantly simple solution to those problems.
This week, the FAIRtax Guys use Boortz and Linder’s analysis to explode the myth of corporate taxation. The myth in question is that shifting some of the tax burden onto rich corporations somehow lightens the load for individuals. The truth is that individuals pay every penny of a “corporate” tax.
#423 The FAIRtax Book - Part 2
5 JUN 2024 · Neal Boortz and John Linder introduced the country to the FAIRtax in 2005 with the publication of their first FAIRtax book. The FAIRtax Guys are doing an extended series of FAIRtax Power Radio programs going back and using Boortz and Linder’s words to explain what’s wrong with the current income tax system and why the FAIRtax is a much better alternative.
In this episode, the Guys look at one of the most evil components of the income tax system—withholding. It’s a system that not only hides how much tax people actually pay, it makes people unaware of exactly how much money they earn.
#422 The FAIRtax Book - Part 1
29 MAY 2024 · In 2005, Neal Boortz and John Linder wrote a fairly short book describing a revolutionary new way to fund the federal government. This new plan would let everyone bring home their entire paychecks, do away with filing tax returns and hang an “Out of Business” sign on the front door of the Internal Revenue Service.
This week, the FAIRtax Guys begin a multi-part series in which they will be going through the FAIRtax book from cover to cover starting with a rather amazing statement from a former Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
#421 Would You Like a Lobbyist with That
22 MAY 2024 · The federal government is supposed to be of the people, by the people and for the people. Unfortunately, with the cost of getting re-elected running in the multiplied millions of dollars, today’s government is more like of the people, by the lobbyists and for the lobbyists.
This week, the FAIRtax Guys dig into opensecrets.org to get an idea of just how massive the lobbying industry is in Washington. It’s a primary reason that it takes over 70,000 pages for our federal tax code to hold all the special carve-outs, deductions, exemptions and credits that billions of dollars worth of lobbying have bought.
#420 Everyday Life with the FAIRtax
15 MAY 2024 · Most people would readily agree that having more money in their pocket would be a good thing that would make a real difference in their everyday lives.
This week, the FAIRtax Guys look at some of the ways that people’s lives would be better if they were living under the FAIRtax instead of the federal income tax system.
The FAIRtax Guys discuss the many problems with the current federal income tax and the solution to all those problems, the FAIRtax.
