Fair Tax? Yes. Income tax is NOT fair.
First of all, how did they get into debt? Unwise planning and budgeting? Fraud and abuse? I don't know the Washington situation. You tell me.
How do other states without income taxes get by?
They do pay taxes. What makes you think that wealthy people don't pay taxes?
In addition to the state income tax that I pay (and would like to abolish), I pay Federal income tax (which goes into the pot that pays for interstate highways and bridges), gas tax (which pays for state roads and bridges), city and county income taxes, sales tax, property tax, communication services tax, personal property tax, and business licenses and fees (which are really taxes by another name).
