Since $0.90 out of the $3.90 price is tax, they call it a 23% tax. But you have to add 30% to the selling price to get the FairTax price.

I don't know why this is special to you. The same could be said about the income tax.

Beyond that, why is this anywhere near as important as making sure illegals pay their share - or making US manufacturers more competitive in the world market?

There have been many, many "movements" like fair tax. They're all dead now, and FT will be too. The reason for this is when trapped, you divert and obfuscate. You answer questions with questions.

FairTax is what happens when Amway and ACLU meetings get their wires crossed.

I was jsut explaining where the 23% and 30% came from since the poster had done the calculation icorrectly. I made no negative remarks about the use of the inclusive rate, i just stated the facts.

Wow, is this the CPA thread? Must be, since everyone is screaming like a demon with holy water thrown on them when the Fair Tax is being promoted.

Showing that your #9 was erroneous on several counts is hardly an attack, podner. It's called setting the record straight.

'Fraid you've mixed your metaphor, TC; the Squirrels are the anti-FairTax types so they love anything negative you can throw against to wall to see if it sticks.

But you didn't address the facts in the last sentence of his post but merely ignored them.

Unintentional, no doubt???

All that screaming is because the Status Quo Lovers are afraid they'll lose their "special piece" of income tax benes when the FairTax becomes law.

What they aren't cognizant enough to realize is that they'll gain substantially with the FairTax.

Nobody loves the status quo - nobody with a brain loves the fairtax

Go read your own post - the Squirrels ARE the FairTax haters; you've got it bassackwards.

Maybe you should read some of the garbage you post instead of just splashing it against the wall.

You're quite wrong about that too, xcamial, there are many on these threads and elsewhere who realize what the FairTax is and the many benefits it brings to most taxpayers and the economy of the US. It has been studied, analyzed and probed and prodded and the answer is always the same - it has great benefits. And that comes from those with far more of a brain than the thing shared by you Squirrels.

And most of you do love the Status Quo or you wouldn't fight and struggle and put forth so much misinformation about it so continually for so long if you weren't panicked by realizing that it's probably going to pass.

Run along, squirrel. You don't get to define reality. Hell, you plainly have not even passing recognition of it.

The politicians would lose all their power with a fair tax.

And people would no longer have tooth decay or hangovers.

And you seem to think the present income tax system is wonderful reality. Talk about no recognition of reality!!!

I'll take the FairTax reality over the income-based tax reality any day.
