FairTax would create jobs, boost economy

Having the highest corporate income tax rate has resulted in Americans losing jobs as U.S. companies relocate to tax-friendlier countries (inversions), because it is a “reverse tariff” on our businesses. H.R.25 will end the triple taxation of American multinational firms, i.e., profits being taxed abroad, at home and when paying dividends.

Foreign trade will boom under the FairTax as American products leave our shores without embedded corporate taxes, thereby allowing U.S. goods to compete equally with foreign products. American companies will return home, as will the jobs, and the U.S. will become a tax haven as foreign companies build their next job-creating plants here. “Made in America” will reappear.”

Prices of American-made products will rise, but foreign goods will increase even more. However, our paychecks, pensions and Social Security will have no deductions for federal income or payroll taxes. The “family consumption allowance” will cover the tax on purchases up to the poverty level.
