This is a follow up email to my lobbying for the fair tax. I am 100% certain he or someone on his staf read and reaplied becasue they commented on some other issues that are personal in nature. Things that happened in my life that I feel helps reinforce my opinion as one that is not based on mere financial gains. I shared with him the condition to which I was born and raised but was able to succeed in life.
I was going to say acheived a better way of living but my mother demonstrated better living by settings good examples throughout my life. Despite an impoverished childhood and dropping out of school. I succeed in life becasue of her relentless examples in parenting and doing the hard work and doing it well. It was dedication to doing the hard work properly and the fact I took personsal respsonsibility for my destiny that elevated my income. I took crap jobs, laborious jobs and used my GI Bill and earned scholarships to pay for my education. I even had to borrow some along the way. I never felt entitled to anyones money to get me out of where I was in life and I earnestly believe we all should share in the burden of carrying this country forward into greatness.
I would be happy regardless of where I am with money as long as I have my family, wife, children, brother and mother, and you cant bet that my values will remai the same. Lord knows I have been knocked down more than once since I made my way up and I never once thought I should stop trying or contributing.
That was in it a nutshell. He or they thanked me for sharing my path in life and assured me that they would consider the citizens desires over any parties agenda. So he is part of it again I cut out the mushy feel good BS but I felt obligated to share with you the fact I believe it was handled by an office offical or Adam himself.
"Thank you for your recent correspondence in support of the Fair Tax Act of 2005. I appreciate hearing from you.
H.R. 25, introduced by Representative John Linder on January 4, 2005, would repeal the federal income tax and replace it with a tax on the use or consumption in the United States of taxable property or services. The bill has been referred to the House Ways and Means Committee, and no hearings have been held on the bill at this time.
President Bush has called for comprehensive reform of the Internal Revenue Code, and has formed a bipartisan commission to consider all possible avenues for tax code reform - including the 'flat tax' and the 'fair tax.' The commission is expected to make recommendations that encourage immediate growth to deal with the economic effects of recent events. "
from here it got into the mushy BS.
