I also have a moral aversion to impressing retailers in to government service as tax collectors.
They already are on the state and local levels. I'm not saying that's a reason to have a national sales tax. My concern is that if income tax isn't 100% removed, that we will end up being double taxed, both a sales tax and an income tax. The government can NOT be trusted in any way shape or form.

That’s my main concern. If you do away with the Federal income tax it does not mean the states will not keep their income taxes and sales taxes.

They already are on the state and local levels. True, but that does not make it morally right and it certainly does not make it right to impose further burden on these people.
Collecting taxes is also puts these people in legal jeopardy.
