Tip Sheet: Become a Tax Reform Expert
By: Kevin Palmer

“…The Neutral Tax gives states incredible freedom. As they replace the federal government as the primary tax collectors, states will be free to experiment with whatever sort of tax structure they like.

Replacing the income tax system with a national consumption tax is a perfectly good idea which would spur economic growth. But the Fair Tax is an awfully heavy lift, because before it would ever garner any real support from economic conservatives you’d have to repeal the 16th Amendment. You can’t have an income tax in place at the same time as a consumption tax; that’s an invitation to even less fiscal discipline than we have now.
