It merely eliminates the disadvantage that the current system places on US production by imbedding the cost of our tax system in our goods.

There is no such thing as "imbedded" cost.
That is a marxist concept that wrongly assumes that companies merely "pass along" all costs and expenses to the consumer.
It is made worse by the false assumption that corporate income taxes are a "cost" when they are actually a confiscation of a portion of the profits (if any) that can only be calculated AFTER costs have been subtracted from revenues.

The "imbedded" arguement is based on absolutely bogus and fallacious theory.
