Tax Evasion Solution to Fund Social Security and Medicare

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Nov. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Tax evasion solution to fund Social Security and Medicate as reported by the Florida FAIRtax Educational Association.

The 2023 Social Security Trustees Report reported:

• Social Security's cost exceeded income by $22.1 billion.
• Social Security will be unable to pay 100% of benefits after 2033.
• Medicare in-patient hospital and post-acute care costs exceeded income by $53.9 billion and Medicare will have to stop paying full benefits after 2031.

In April of 2021, Charles Rettig, former IRS Commissioner, admitted what everyone paying attention already knew--there is at least $1 trillion of income tax that is illegally evaded each year.

Quoting Steve Hayes, President of Americans for Fair Taxation, "Nobody likes a cheat or a free loader. This $1 trillion of evaded income taxes actually costs the Social Security Trust Fund over $1.5 trillion of contributions each year. This additional money would make Social Security and Medicare solvent for many more years. 

The FAIRtax Act of 2023, HR 25 eliminates most of the tax evasion and funds Social Security and Medicare through a national retail sales tax. The bill includes a "Prebate", a monthly payment per legal resident for the FAIRtax paid up to subsistence level spending. The "Prebate" disarms the sales tax critics. This refund is of the most help to the impoverished, is the only tax break and replaces the standard/itemized income tax deduction."

Why FAIRtax reduces income tax evasion and increases revenue:

• Over 90% of retail sales are made by less than 10% of sellers—think Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc.
• Every state will collect the FAIRtax with the same processes that result in evasion rates of less than 5%.
• All sellers of retail goods and services will collect the FAIRtax, resulting to an 80% reduction in collection points

The FAIRtax will ensure the future solvency of Social Security and Medicare:

• Greatly reducing illegal evasion
• Moves tax base from production to consumption, a larger and more stable tax base
• Extends the tax base from just those working for a paycheck to everyone whose spending exceeds their poverty level
