Advocate of FairTax system, pay taxes only on what you buy

Press release: "Allen R. Waters, Senate candidate challenging Elizabeth Warren, signs the FairTax Pledge."

"Why is it that both Republicans and Democrats in the Bay State recognize that when we tax products like cigarettes to discourage people from engaging in that behavior, the same is true with productivity?" states Waters. "The more we tax what people earn, the more we discourage them from being productive members of our community," Waters continued. The Federal government and Beacon Hill does not have a revenue problem, they have a spending problem," stated Waters.

The Fair Tax is a consumption tax whereby citizens pay only upon the purchase of new goods and services. Recognizing that our income is our reward for the work and risks we take to improve our lives, our families, and those people businesses employ; taxing such effort is truly counterproductive.
