| | FairTax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The FairTax is a proposed change in United States tax laws to replace all federal personal income taxes, payroll taxes, corporate taxes, capital gains taxes, self-employment taxes, gift taxes and inheritance taxes with a national retail sales tax and monthly tax rebate to all households. | | | FairTax supporters would also add that the payroll tax system, the largest tax burden for the poor, is regressive on income taxing only the first $90,000 from wages, and none earned from capital investments or interest. | | | Although the FairTax is a proposal for a nationwide federal retail sales tax, the proposal calls for the retail sales tax to be administered by the individual states' existing sales tax administrations rather than a federal agency like the IRS. |

| | FairTax - Thumbnail Sketch |
| | The FairTax plan is a comprehensive proposal that replaces all federal income and payroll taxes with an integrated approach including a progressive national retail sales tax, a rebate to ensure no American pays federal taxes up to the poverty level, dollar-for-dollar revenue neutrality, and the repeal of the 16th Amendment. | | | The FairTax allows Americans to keep 100 percent of their paychecks (minus any state income taxes), ends corporate taxes and compliance costs hidden in the retail cost of goods and services, and fully funds the federal government while fulfilling the promise of Social Security and Medicare. | | | The FairTax removes the cost of corporate taxes and compliance costs from the cost of U.S. exports, putting U.S. exports on a level playing field with foreign competitors. |

| | Minnesotans for the FairTax - FairTax Facts |
| | The FairTax will eliminate all payroll taxes, enabling wage earners to bring home 100% of their paycheck to spend, save and invest. | | | Minnesotans for the FairTax is a group of concerned Minnesota citizens with the express mission of educating our fellow Minnesotans about the merit of changing the federal tax system from direct taxation of income to indirect taxation through a national consumption tax as outlined in the HR 25, The FairTax Act of 2003. | | | Lower interest rates, the repeal of the income tax, the repeal of all payroll taxes, and the FairTax rebate will mean that people will have more money to spend, as well as the opportunity to become homeowners. |

| | The FairTax’s reduction in average tax rates on the working age population reflects the broadening of the tax base from what is now primarily a system of labor income taxation to a system that taxes, albeit indirectly, both labor income and existing wealth. | | | The FairTax exempts educational expenditures, but educational expenditures are viewed by economists as a form of human capital investment, not a form of consumption. | | | The FairTax is the most transparent of any tax system. |

| | The FairTax calls for an additional sales tax; most persons fall into an income tax bracket of 15%, and all wage earners pay 7.65% in payroll taxes, which is where the 23% originates. | | | Because the FairTax is progressive, the larger the government, the larger the rate, and likewise, the shrinking of the government would cause the tax rate to fall. | | | For instance, should the government mandate a system requiring people to save 10% of their income, then the 23% tax rate would be reduced to 13% so that it would match the payroll taxes. |

| | Under the FairTax, we estimate there will be some 20 million retail sales tax returns to state sales tax collection agencies, where an estimated 90 percent of sales taxes are collected by eight percent of retailers. | | | The wealthy will finally be taxed according to their lifestyle, which the income tax has miserably failed to do since its inception; those who choose to live modestly will pay less (both as a percentage of spending and overall taxes paid). | | | The FairTax provides the funds necessary for Social Security reform, whatever form that might take, without Draconian hikes in payroll taxes that are a huge burden on working class Americans. |
