This book is not a conventional tax guide—it’s a visionary manifesto for revolutionizing one of the most outdated systems of our time: taxation. With wit, insight, and a dash of irreverence, Herbert takes readers on a journey to reimagine how we fund our societies, challenging the status quo and presenting a refreshingly simple solution: a consumption-based tax system powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The book starts with an impassioned rallying cry to Baby Boomers, urging them to lead the charge in dismantling flawed income-tax systems that burden productivity and reward loopholes. Drawing on real-world examples from Australia, New Zealand, and the United States, Herbert critiques the inefficiencies and inequities of current tax frameworks, exposing how they fail both individuals and economies. He then outlines the transformative potential of a smarter system that taxes spending rather than earnings, offering fairness, transparency, and simplicity.

Herbert’s writing style is engaging, conversational, and peppered with humor that makes even the most complex concepts feel accessible. Whether you’re a seasoned economist or simply someone tired of tax-season headaches, this book speaks to all audiences with clarity and purpose.

In My Little Blue Book, Herbert not only presents a groundbreaking idea but also inspires action—challenging readers to envision and champion a fairer, smarter, and more just economic future.
