"The World's Largest Gathering of Free Minds" is currently taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada. Freedom Fest is an annual conference dedicated to bringing the leading free market intellectuals together for discussion and debate.
The theme of this year's conference is "8 Great Debates in '08?", headlined by a debate between New York Times bestselling authors Christopher Hitchens and Dinesh D'Souza. However, an intriguing undercard match-up pits Cato Tax Policy specialist Daniel Mitchell debating our own Dr. David Tuerck, Executive Director of the Beacon Hill Institute. The two men will debate "Flat Tax vs. Fair Tax."
The Beacon Hill Institute has already done extensive research on the Fair Tax. Several of our reports can be found here.
World Net Daily will provide daily coverage of the event.
