What does the three F’s stand for? FREEDOM! Yes I’m standing up for what I believe in. We have to support our leaders that are trying to stop the Evil Forces. We need to support Trump against the “Dark Side”. We need to shed light on the dark side to expose what is happening to our country and our people. Our Country did stand for “Truth and Justice” We are slowly losing it. Freedom is not free, we have to fight for it! . The Dark side is trying to get rid of our laws and our Law Enforcement. There are some people that have foreign influence and foreign Money. It turns out that they have been paying for the favors to some treasonists people.
I have been writing this column for some twenty years or more and have been sharing information about these illegal irregularities here the last two and a half years. I wrote about Fauci and Obama using our tax money to help finance the Wuhan Lab. I got COVID two years ago Christmas and gave it to my whole family…My wife, both sons, both of their wives all of the grand children (two were infants) so understand how it effected us on Christmas day. I am still not over it. A few times the thought would ease back, then I would lose another friend. The thought that our country being part of developing the Virus just chills me to the bone. I thought follow the money??? What happened to the Social Security Money that our employer and us paid in for our retirement and they died and retiree won’t receive after death? Think about that!

Senior citizens as a group fair better under the FAIRtax than under the current income tax. Although some erroneously believe they pay no taxes if living on Social Security alone, they are still paying the hidden corporate income tax and employer payroll tax imbedded in everything they buy. Under the FAIRtax, those hidden costs are removed. Plus, senior, like ever other citizen or legal resident will receive the prebate at the beginning of each month for taxes paid on the cost of necessities. Since once an item is taxed it is not taxable again, all purchases of used goods are rendered tax free. If a senior wishes to continue working, they are freed from the regressive payroll taxes on their earnings under the FAIRtax and there is no income tax on their Social Security. The income tax imposed on investment income and pension benefits or IRA withdrawals is repealed. An income tax deduction from most pension funds, IRAs and 401(k) was taken for contributions to most of these plans. All beneficiaries and owners of these plans expected to pay income tax on them upon withdrawal, but are not required to do so under the FAIRtax. Plus any interest on savings you may have acquired is no longer subject to taxation. Seniors have a dramatically higher home ownership rate than other age groups but those who wish to sell their homes face capital gains tax under the current system. Senior also have the comforting knowledge that if they wish to pass their estate on to their heirs, that the heirs will not have to sell all or part of that estate in order to pay the inheritance tax. There is no capital gains tax or inheritance tax under the FAIRtax. The FAIRtax makes the economy much more dynamic and prosperous. Consequently, federal revenues grow which makes it less likely that federal budget pressures require Medicare and Social Security benefit cuts. And, since the FAIRtax requires a certain percentage of all revenues collected to be distributed between these two programs, Medicare and Social Security will be much more stable for years to come.
