Quick Facts

Discussions with focus groups have shown that Americans want a tax system that provides Fairness, Simplicity, and Visibility. The FairTax achieves these objectives:

Simplicity — no tax filings; one rate for everyone
Fairness — it's progressive, but protects the poor through a tax rebate on the necessities of life; and there are no loopholes, everyone pays the same rate on every purchase
Visibility — our taxes will be shown on every sales receipt rather than hidden in the prices we pay
