I sent mine in a few days ago, just got this response:

"Thank you for contacting me to express your opinion of our current tax system. I appreciate your taking the time to share your thoughts on this matter.

Our tax system is in dire need of reform, and Americans deserve a fairer tax system. Today's tax code is so complex that many Americans cannot even file their own taxes and must go to an accountant. In fact, our nation spends 5.4 billion hours a year - as many hours as the entire population of Indiana works - filling out tax forms.

During each Congress, many tax reform proposals are introduced for consideration. One of these proposals, H.R. 25 - the FAIR Tax bill, enacts a national sales tax to be administered primarily by the States. I am proud to inform you that I am a cosponsor of this legislation.

As you may be aware, the FAIR Tax bill would create a new 23 percent tax inclusive federal sales tax on all new products sold within the United States. If enacted into law, the measure would repeal federal income, corporate income, self-employment, payroll, capital gains, Social Security, Medicare and gift and estate taxes.

It is clear to me that the time has come to engage Congress and the nation in a dialogue on reforming our current tax system. By cosponsoring the FAIR Tax, I hope to encourage thoughtful discourse on this important issue. Through such a national debate, I know that this proposal, and other tax reform measures, can be carefully assessed and examined so we as a nation can begin the process of making real changes to our outdated tax system.



Again, I want to thank you for taking the time to contact me. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of any further assistance on this matter or if you would like additional information on this topic or other issues facing Congress, please visit my Website at http://crenshaw.house.gov."

Unless I mis-read this, it seems to me my Congressman basically ignored everything about my e-mail except for the topic.
