I_Miss_George:
I really like your idea of the "Armory of Knowledge." I started listening to Glenn last fall and realized that I have been living in an uninformed bubble for years. I have begun a reading campaign to educate myself, but I'm a first-year school teacher, only employed half-time, and I can't afford to buy these materials. It is often difficult to find the books he recommends at the library. (I live in a very conservative area, and there are VERY long waiting lists for all the items he recommends- and many of the newer ones are not available in libraries yet!)
Is there a way to post the contents of some of these books online? Older documents could be copied without copyright infringement, correct? All it would take is a website and someone willing to type. (Is there already a site where one can access the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence?) Do we think any of the more recent authors would be willing to post at least some of their material online in support of "The Cause"? Or, perhaps, a 'cliff-notes' version that incorporates a bibliography as well? The more information we have, from dependable sources, the more we'll be able to defend our stance with ideas and logic, rather than relying on emotion, religion, and tradition.
Maybe we could add a section to the 912Project site that incorporated information and discussion: links to documents online, excerpts from more recent books, etc. combined with a well-organized and indexed discussion forum. Perhaps if we were able to reference and organize our comments... Maybe comment titles that reference the document and section being discussed? Hmm...
Thanks for your idea. How do we make it happen?

The Fair Tax would also tax those who are paid 'under the table' and avoid another unfair aspect of the income tax.
