In response to Ed Outlaw’s recent letter expounding that the Fair Tax bills HR25 and S25 are not fair, I believe he may have distorted the facts.

Being the presenter, my colleague and I were greeting guests prior to the meeting, and at that time Mr. Outlaw stated the Fair Tax would not ever work. When asked had he read the book by Representative John Linder and talk-show host Neil Boortz, the answer was, no, he had not.

When asked if he had read the bill HR25, which can be obtained on Congress’s “Thomas” Web site, www.thomas.loc.gov/ or simply www.FairTax.org, the answer was, no, he had not.

I also invited Mr. Outlaw to ask questions at the end of the presentation, but he declined to raise his hand.

Rather than debate the facts in this limited space editorial, I suggest each taxpaying citizen use the above mentioned resource (www.FairTax.org) and get the first-hand information about the current overbearing IRS and the resolve available by encouraging our Congress to pass HR25 or S25 for fair tax.
