Well, this is good news. I have been wondering about this, but CNSNews.com says:
Former Sen. Fred Thompson of Tennessee — the not-quite-yet Republican presidential candidate — says the next president “should enact a fundamental overhaul of the tax code that makes it fairer, simpler, and more pro-growth.”
Thompson mentioned that there are a “number of ways to do that,” and he said the “principles and ideas found in the Fair Tax are a good place to start.”
Here’s the rub: He says the FairTax is a “good place to start.” Um, no Fred. The FairTax is the goal, not the starting point. He doesn’t have Mike Huckabee’s commitment to the cause, but it is a start. Maybe a couple more FairTax rallies will help him see the light.
