Chairman's Report

The income/payroll tax system is something bank robber Willie Sutton would definitely admire. In this week's Chairman's Report, Steve Hayes explains how the income tax system is used for legalized theft, and how the Swamp has built a foolproof system that lets them profit at our expense regardless of who wins elections.

How many times have you heard that the FAIRtax is a great idea, but it will never pass? In this CR, Steve Hayes looks back at another movement that faced seemingly impossible odds, but succeeded anyway. It can happen again with the FAIRtax.

Joe Biden's plan to increase tax rates and reduce deductions would be disastrous for the economy, but that's not the real problem. The real problem is a crazy, convoluted tax system that can be monkeyed with at will. The lack of stability in the tax code is a major headache for businesses and a real problem for individuals as well. This week, Steve Hayes explains how a predictable, stable tax system like the FAIRtax would help both business and individuals make better financial decisions.

Congress is full of solutions in search of a problem. In this week's Chairman's Report, AFFT President Steve Hayes looks at one such proposal from Kevin Brady regarding commercial real estate. He examines how Congressman Brady's proposal may provide some temporary relief, but doesn't really solve the problem. The real solution, of course, is the FAIRtax.

California's fiscal house is a mess. Oppressive taxation is driving both businesses and individuals out of the Golden State. It's going to take a massive effort to get things back in order. In this week's Chairman's Report, Steve Hayes makes the case that California can reverse the current trends and again make California an attractive place to live and do business if they would adopt a FAIRtax-style consumption tax to replace their state income tax.

The Senators and Representatives that we elect to Congress are supposed to be looking out for our best interests. However, lobbyists exert a tremendous amount of influence over those who are supposed to be representing us by virtue of the tremendous amounts of money they can funnel into campaign coffers. In this Chairman's Report, Steve Hayes names the names of those who have taken in the lion's share of lobbyist money and again explains how the FAIRtax will greatly reduce lobbyists' influence and return Congress to we the people.

In this week's Chairman's Report, Steve Hayes looks at the recent non-decisions by the Supreme Court regarding President Trump's tax returns, then asks the obvious question that no one else is asking. Why should anyone be required to file a tax return in the first place when doing so is a clear violation of the Fifth Amendment?

This week, AFFT president Steve Hayes explains how the corrupt income/payroll tax system is assisting in the economic suicide of thousands if not millions of Americans. It's not a pretty sight and it has to stop. Steve explains how replacing the income tax with the FAIRtax is a matter of economic life or death.

The "Infernal Revenue Code" is full of traps and time bombs that threaten every small business. In this week's Chairman's Report, Steve Hayes points out some of the innocuous, but dangerous language in the tax code and how it can be used against honest business owners.

A quick Independence Day greeting to all FAIRtax supporters and volunteers from AFFT President Steve Hayes.
