I support the Even Fairer Tax, and anyone who doesn't is a monster. It's right there in the name!

Putting aside my political views is impossible to do on a question of how a polity should finance itself. This submission is submarine-style PR for a conservative initiative that aims to 'promote freedom, fairness, and economic opportunity by repealing the income tax and other taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service, and enacting a national sales tax to be administered primarily by the States.'

If you want to argue that this system would be superior because Reasons then I would be interested in hearing your argument (although I probably won't agree with it), but you didn't even bother to articulate what you find interesting about it. Perhaps delete this and try again with more substance.
