Back on topic, I find it fascinating just how GOOD these AM radio guys are at spreading their message. On a lark, I decided to read Neal Boortz's FairTax book, and it's like a transcript of his radio show, full of exclamation points and propaganda, "us vs. them" diatribes, etc. It's easy to see how a lot of people would read this and be easily convinced that it's the greatest idea ever, while conveniently talking around any of the cons. I imagine Mr. Boortz is very persuasive during his radio shows....
