Synopsis:
File your taxes on a postcard?
Impossible!
Guess again, says Steve Forbes, in his important new book Flat Tax Revolution. In fact, countries around the world have freed their taxpayers to do just that—and we can too with a simple flat tax that will slash tax rates, spur economic growth, and put the IRS out of business.
In Flat Tax Revolution you’ll learn:
· How a simple 17 percent flat tax will save you time, money, and worry
· Why the Flat Tax will eliminate the IRS, its bureaucrats, its paperwork, its nightmares, and its hassles
· Why the Flat Tax will create jobs, and bring back ones we’ve lost overseas
· How other countries are already reaping the benefits of a flat tax system
· How the flat tax will stop special interests getting tax breaks at your expense
· How the flat tax will eliminate shady accounting in business (something that our current tax system encourages)
· Why the Forbes Flat Tax is also a tax cut
· What you can do to make the Flat Tax a reality
As Steve Forbes shows, the Flat Tax shouldn’t be a partisan issue—it should be a taxpayer issue. And you can make it happen.
What are you waiting for? Buy this book and join the crusade!
Synopsis: A fact filled call to action, which Steve Forbes will use to lobby the President and Congress for real reform.

Hardcover. First edition. First printing [stated]. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. xxii, 216, [2] p. Illustrations. Notes. Index. A fact filled call to action, which Steve Forbes will use to lobby the President and Congress for real reform. From WIkipedia: "Malcolm Stevenson "Steve" Forbes, Jr. (born July 18, 1947) is an American publishing executive who was twice a candidate for the nomination of the Republican Party for president. He is the editor-in-chief of business magazine Forbes magazine as well as president and chief executive officer of its parent company, Forbes, Inc. His 20 year tenure as head of Forbes magazine coincided with the decline of the publication and the Forbes family empire. By 2009, Forbes' EBITDA had fallen to-$4.6M and in 2010, he was replaced as President and Chief Executive Officer of Forbes Media LLC, the publisher of Forbes magazine, by Mike Perlis, the first non-Forbes family member to run the magazine since its founding in 1917. Forbes magazine was eventually put up for sale in November 2013. He was a Republican candidate in the 1996 and 2000 presidential primaries. He is the son of longtime Forbes publisher Malcolm Forbes and the grandson of that publication's founder, B.C. Forbes. Forbes was born in Morristown, New Jersey, to Roberta Remsen (nee Laidlaw) and Malcolm Forbes. Forbes grew up wealthy in the town of Far Hills, New Jersey and attended the prestigious Far Hills Country Day School. He then graduated cum laude from Brooks School in North Andover, Massachusetts in 1966, and was in the Princeton class of 1970. While at Princeton, Forbes founded his first magazine, Business Today, with two other students. Business Today is currently the largest student-run magazine in the world. Forbes is a member of Alpha Kappa Psi and Tau Kappa Epsilon. In 1971 he married Sabina Beekman. They have five daughters; Sabina, Roberta, Catherine, Moira, and Elizabeth. Early political career[edit]In 1985, President Ronald Reagan appointed Forbes as head of the Board of International Broadcasting (BIB), Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty He helped craft Christine Todd Whitman's plan for a thirty percent cut in New Jersey's income tax over three years, and this plan proved to be a major factor in her victory over incumbent Governor James Florio. Forbes entered the Republican primaries for President of the United States in 1996 and 2000, primarily running on a campaign to establish a flat income tax. He also supported the ideas of re-introducing 4 1/2% mortgages and term limits in 1996, but dropped both in 2000 (as they were minor planks in his overall platform). When Forbes ran for president in 1996 and 2000, he sold some of his Forbes, Inc. voting shares to other family members to help finance his run. He did not come close to securing the Republican nomination, despite winning the Arizona and Delaware primaries in 1996 and getting some significant shares of the vote in other primaries. His awkward campaigning style was considered to be a major factor in his defeat. Time Magazine called his stumping a "comedy-club impression of what would happen if some mad scientist decided to construct a dork robot" and also described his campaign as "wacky, saturated with money and ultimately embarrassing to all concerned." After dropping out early in the 2000 primary season, he returned to heading the magazine and company. During the 1996 campaign, insiders at Fortune alleged that stories about Forbes' advertisers became favorably biased toward them. Major issues Forbes has supported include free trade, health savings accounts, and allowing people to opt out 75% of Social Security payroll taxes into personal retirement accounts (PRAs). He supports traditional Republican Party policies such as downsizing government agencies to balance the budget, tough crime laws and support for the death penalty, and school vouchers. He opposes gun control and most government regulation of the environment, as well as drug legalization and same-sex marriage. This last was despite his father's. Seller Inventory # 68090
