Rep. Buddy Carter introduced a bill to eliminate the IRS and federal income tax

On January 3, 2025, Congressman Buddy Carter (R-GA) introduced H.R. 25, known as the FairTax Act of 2025.
This legislation proposes a significant overhaul of the U.S. tax system by eliminating the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and replacing federal income taxes with a national consumption tax.
The FairTax Act aims to repeal existing personal and corporate income taxes, as well as other federal taxes such as the death tax, gift taxes, and payroll taxes. In their place, it would implement a single national sales tax on retail purchases, administered primarily by the states. Proponents argue that this system would simplify the tax code, promote economic growth, and allow individuals to retain their entire paychecks, paying taxes only when they make purchases.
Congressman Carter has been a longstanding advocate for the FairTax, having previously introduced similar legislation in earlier sessions of Congress. He contends that the current tax system is overly complex and burdensome, and that the FairTax would eliminate the need for the IRS, thereby reducing government intrusion into individuals' financial affairs.
The bill has been referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means for further consideration.

Government documents from 2014 refer to XRP

The United States Government Accountability Office:
Other virtual currencies that have been created are not based on the bitcoin protocol.
One of the more prominent examples is XRP, which is used within a decentralized payment system called Ripple.
Ripple allows users to make peer-to-peer transfers in any currency.
A key function of XRP is to facilitate the conversion from one currency to another.
For example, if a direct conversion between Mexican pesos and Thai baht is not available, the pesos can be exchanged for XRP, and then the XRP for baht.
