Why The Fair Tax Benefits Students…

  • The FairTax untaxes education. The FairTax rewards education and upward mobility in the simplest and most powerful way: It eliminates tuition from all federal taxation.
  • FairTax effectively untaxes the poor making college and education opportunities more available to everyone.
  • Increases economic opportunity for you when you graduate and enter the workforce.

Why The Fair Tax Benefits Republicans…

  • Removes the IRS and the 67,500 pages of tax code, and the $265 billion spent yearly in tax code filing and compliance.
  • Allows you to keep your whole paycheck and determine how you much taxes you, not the government, want to pay.
  • Provides a huge boost to the American economy, and key sectors such as manufacturing, and levels the playing field for international trade.
  • Creates a new system that, unlike our current tax laws, does not favor debt over wealth.

Why The Fair Tax Benefits Seniors…

  • The FairTax ensures Social Security’s soundness by funding it with a progressive, broad-based national retail sales tax, rather than the current regressive, narrow payroll tax.
  • The FairTax rebate zeros the retail taxation of necessities, up to poverty-level spending, for seniors.
  • The FairTax repeals the taxation of Social Security benefits and adjusts Social Security indexing to protect seniors.

Why The Fair Tax Benefits Democrats…

  • The FairTax meets the entire Democratic tax agenda, starting with progressivity. The FairTax is far more progressive than the current income tax system. Under the FairTax, low-income households experience five times the benefit increase as compared to high-income households.
  • The FairTax eliminates the highly regressive tax on wages of the working poor and middle class. The FairTax removes the single most regressive element (the payroll tax) for wage earners.

Why The Fair Tax Benefits Manufacturing…

  • The FairTax plan reduces the cost of American manufacturing considerably. Under the FairTax, American manufactured goods and services no longer enter the marketplace burdened with hidden corporate taxes, the cost of compliance with such taxes, and Social Security employee matching. This amounts to an average cost reduction from 12 percent to in some cases more than 25 percent. Said another way, American goods become 12 to 25 percent more competitive.
  • The FairTax levels the playing field. Under the FairTax, imported goods and domestically produced goods incur the same U.S. tax. This stands in stark contrast to the present system, where U.S. companies and workers must pay income tax and payroll taxes, but foreign goods enter the U.S. entirely free of any tax, other than whatever modest customs duties are levied.
