Fair Tax Not In Mitt Romney Platform

When asked about the Fair Tax on May 24,2007, it appeared that Mitt hadn't been briefed on the actual benefits of the Fair Tax - especially the fact that used goods would not be taxed.

This isn't your fault dude because you posted this 4 months ago but... check out Huckabee now. WOW. The FairTax seems to have some legs.

on the FairTax itself, the states sales tax authorities collect and enforce the FairTax like they do sales taxes now. That's an 80 reduction in compliance points compared to what the feds have now with an only 84% compliance rate. Check out fairtax. org for more details.

I'm telling you it's not going to pass soon. You might as well go for the candidate for lower taxes, or have none at all.

Mitt Romney proposed three new taxes while campaigning for governor: a new tax on vehicles, a new tax on campaign donations, and a new tax on building construction.
(All public record)
Then there's all his increased "fees and surcharges". Despite semantics, they were still a tax.

According to The Tax Foundation, a conservative tax research organization, in 2002 (the year before Romney came to power), Massachusetts state and local tax burden was 9.8 percent: the 34th highest in the nation. The Tax Foundation reported that in 2006, Massachusetts state and local tax burden had increased to 10.3 percent: the 28th highest in the nation. Thus, during the Romney administration, Bay Staters saw their taxes burden increase by 5.1 percent in real terms.
