5 Page 5 WHY TRUMP? / WHY NOW? President Donald Trump has a special ability to use common sense to connect with the American people. This ability propelled him to one of the biggest upsets in electoral history. FAIRtax is a common sense solution that aligns perfectly with President Trump s goals and aspirations for America. The FAIRtax was conceived by a group of businessmen from Texas in the midnineties. Texans think big! They first asked the question What would the ideal tax system look like if you started with a blank sheet of paper? With those criteria, they worked with some of the best economic minds in the country and invested over $20 million in research to develop the FAIRtax plan. You could say the FAIRtax comes from Main Street, not Wall Street, and certainly not K Street. President Donald Trump has proven himself to be a unique force of nature as a political outsider. He has consistently demonstrated a willingness to break the mold, with great positive effect. His choices as cabinet appointees and operating staff, demonstrate a large measure of common sense. FAIRtaxers believe that President Donald Trump represents our best hope for a big solution on tax reform. We are confident that he will see the common sense of replacing the Income Tax with a comprehensive consumption tax, the FAIRtax. At that point, he can use the power of the bully pulpit to make it happen. FAIRtaxers believe also, that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for major tax reform. Indeed we believe that President Donald Trump is the leader who can close the deal. Some Presidents obsess about their legacies. President Trump will not have to worry about that if he presides over the passage of the FAIRtax and the repeal of the 16th Amendment. PRESIDENT TRUMP = BIG SOLUTIONS
