The Occasional Observer

Gov. Huckabee floored me when he announced he wanted to push for the Fair Tax. As far as I'm aware, this makes him the first GOP candidate to call for abolishing the IRS and replacing the income tax with a consumption tax. As far as I'm concerned (and for reasons discussed on this blog before), this would be the single most beneficial change in tax policy that our country could have at this point. Liking Huckabee already, I was extremely happy to hear him announce this position.

In fact, Mrs Fredo had to scold me because of the sleeping children. What can I do? Exciting times are exciting times.
