Americans For Fair Taxation
The FairTax plan is a comprehensive proposal that replaces all federal income and payroll based taxes with an integrated approach including a progressive national retail sales tax, a prebate to ensure no American pays federal taxes on spending up to the poverty level, dollar-for-dollar federal revenue neutrality, and, through companion legislation, the repeal of the 16th Amendment.

Definition of the Middle Class
A class of people who get none of the handouts of the privileged poor, who do not have the tax shelters of the privileged rich and do not have unlimited resources to waste like the privileged elected officials.
The "Middle Class" does, however, enjoy two privileges of its own. The right to pay its own way and the honor of paying for all the privileges enjoyed by the rest.

WHY SO MUCH VENOM TOWARDS STATE WORKERS?
The average state worker averages $50,000 . We work at prisons, developmental centers, psych hospitals, we handle motor vehicle issues, we protect the environment as well as the vulnerable children of this State. We go to work every day and we give the taxpayers an honest day's work for an honest day's pay. We are your neighbors, our children play together, they attend the same schools. We pay our taxes. We pay for our families health benefits. We contribute to our pension fund. We are good citizens of this State.
So why are we so despised, so maligned? Why are we stereotyped as greedy and lazy?
Is it comments and "stands" by our Union leadership that gets people angry? Well many times those comments get us angry also.
Is it a bad experience with a State department that has some angry? Well we don't make policy we just have to enforce it. To be honest some of the policies are outdated and plain silly.
Our political leaders are going to have to make some difficult fiscal choices in the coming months. Using us point of service state workers as scapegoats has become politically popular. I hope that we are judged on the work that we do for the taxpayers of this State and not on stereotypical rhetoric.
We are not rich and we are not lazy, and the overwhelming majority of us do the best we can to provide the services, you, the taxpayer demand. I simply ask that you judge the point of service state worker fairly.
Thanks,
Michael
