## Resource

The IRS is broken. The system is impossibly difficult to follow and understand. The Fair Tax eliminates the infamous three letter agency and makes the system of funding our government...fair. Former US Representative John Linder who led the fight in the US Congress for years is joined by Americans For Fair Taxation President Steve Hayes for a discussion that covers every angle of the Fair Tax, responds to criticisms and explains what its implementation would mean for taxpayers of the United States if it ever becomes law.
