Anything's better than the hideously complex, loophole-riddled monstrosity we have now. Have you actually SEEN a copy of the US Tax Code? It's amazing we take in anything at all!
If you have 8$ go buy the book on it. It should be in at most bookstores.

Apperantly you have some misconceptions about it.

All families would get "needs" tax free. They would get a check for the tax on needs based on the size of their family every month. It is a plan that should help the poor by allowing them to start saving.

I could not agree more, even if it is not fair tax we need to wipe the code clean.
