Smokey, you made pretty wide assumptions on my behalf and used the wrong premises. <br> We ALL chose which information to gather and keep. I access as much data as I can get my hands on. Books on web design, computer software and hardware, calculus, engineering, physics, history, historical figures, cook books, some novels, businesses, and mutual funds fill two book cases and some boxes. Only two books have ever come from a talk show host recommendation and that would be both Fair Tax books. That leaves several hundred other books that were not.<br> <br> Smokey, keep your assumptions if it helps you sleep at night. Saying things are too complex is only to speak about how YOU view things. Saying what type of listener I am is also a show of weakness, because you operate off of the assumed premise that I only do what Neil says. <br> <br> My career and personal life have brought me to view that the most effective methods are worth my time. Complex situations are not fun for most people. Using simple black and white questions to figure out what a person is looking for is my preferred solution. The Fair Tax does this. Of all the issues of reducing the size government, I chose the Fair Tax because I heard about it and read books, papers, articles, public documents. Ive yet to find a better method that will get through congress. Other methods would be better, but to make it happen would require a miracle to get passed.<br> <br> Quote James Madison referring to the Constitution:<br> No man would refuse to give brass for silver or gold, because the latter had some alloy in it. No man would refuse to quit a shattered and tottering habitation, for a firm and commodious building because the latter had not a porch to it.<br> Or in todays standards: Do you want the car thats been dropped off a clip or a low mileage car with a scratch on the hood?<br> <br> Smokey, I have one more thing ask; what was the point of your post? You bumbled around and said its so complex, yet stated little. That is your choice, so be it.<br> <br> For those who wish to speak for me, on my behalf, or because they get me; please dont. Dont use me to inject a false statement about other people or about a subject on which myself and others agree upon. I will speak for myself, because only I know myself. By Ken
