First, the "job-killing" phrase of the health care law has been disproved or, at the most, considered relatively negligible (source). For bill number 2, I will never understand the obsession by this party's supporters with a woman's uterus. So, priorities 1 and 2, are nods to their base. House bill number 3 rids small business of too much paperwork? Okay....
...that's why all our efforts are centered around jobs. ~ Eric Cantor

Oh it sounds great -- but check out the Fine Print in Fairtax. Fairtax is a perfect test for a candidate. It sounds great, right?
What if its really goofy nonsense? Oh we need a new tax system, absolutely! But what if Fairtax fine print has some really goofy stuff in it, like they pretend to tax moonbeams, or baby farts for two trillion?
Well, turns out, Fairtax is a goofy deceptive farce. And if Huck doesn't know it, he should.
Because Fairtax fine print says something drastically different than they say in their videos, their speeches, their books.
You probably think -- because Huck sells it this way -- is that Fairtax is a tax on personal consumption, that you decide what taxes you pay by what you buy -- no tax forms, the whole deal.
Sounds great -- and I loved it myself. I was a big supporter of it.
Then I read the fine print.
For ten years they said only PEOPLE pay taxes,, right? For 10 years they said "transparent" and "no bull" and "no double talk" right?
Well, then I read one seemingly odd sentence in the Fairtax Answer Book. You read it, see if there is anything odd.
"Under our plan, all city and state governments will pay to the federal government a tax on all their spending -- on all their purchases, on services and goods, including labor (wages)."
Fairtax -The Truth. Answering the Critics. Page 138.
A tax on all city and state governments? On all their purchases, including labor? In fact, their fine print shows city and state governments would pay this massive tax on everything but education salaries, and foreign travel.
Their ENTIRE budgets, they must pay this tax on! Almost 25% of their entire budgets -- paid to the federal government as a tax??
Yes -- I contacted officials from Fairtax. Jim Bennett was one of them. I have a blog about those conversations here ---http://fairtaxfineprint.blogspot.com/
California state government would owe 18 billion! Texas, 14billion! And every city, every county!
Strange, Mike Huckabee never mentioned this.
If I had not spoken directly too Fairtax officals about this, I would not believe it. You could not convince me there was a second tier -- an entire other system -- to tax government.
Is that even possible? Where will city and states get this money? Over a trillion dollars!
But forget where they would get it -- why hide it? Shy not mention this in their speeches? Why not mention this in their books, and videos.
Jim Bennett, the spokesman for Fairtax, told me bluntly, they have no intention of educating city and state officials about this. When I asked why -- he just said "because we don't"
Really -- its the goofy explanation for this massive hidden tax that makes me realize something is very wrong.
