The national sales tax is the least intrusive of the tax proposals. The IRS would be substantially dismantled. The IRS would no longer look over the shoulders of every taxpayer. Americans would not waste time and effort worrying about record keeping. deductions. or exemptions that are part of the current tax code. The national sales tax is the fairest. Everyone pays the tax including criminals. illegal aliens. and others who currently avoid taxation. Wealthy Americans with lavish spending habits would pay substantial amounts of taxes under the national sales tax. Individuals who save and invest their money will pay less.
