The so-called Fair Tax is a rich man's scam the wealthy would love to pull off on everyday Americans.
A national sales tax is extremely regressive and would decrease taxes paid by the wealthiest among us.
They would love to have you fall for the scam.
They dreamt it up,
...they pay millions to have unaware ditto heads misrepresent it and lobby for it's passage.
You have be to some kind of gullible drone to even imagine for a moment it's in your own best interests to have it ever become law.
There are many things wrong with a consumption tax,
...but the real off-putting effect of the Fair Tax plan on wage earners that no booster will tell you about is it results in employers across the board lowering wages by 20%.
So you're going to pay a tax of 30% on the dollar and your wages are cut
The 'Fair Tax' plan is not fair and, unless you're filthy rich, it's not in your best interests in any way shape or form.
