Not everyone produces, yet everyone consumes. Fair Tax is a consumption tax, capturing EVERYONE into the tax code.

How's that? Drug dealers, pimps, etc. will collect the FairTax on all their transactions and hand it over to the government?

No, when drug dealers, pimps, etc go to the grocery store to buy food or buy some new bling jewelry or a new car, they pay their fair share of income taxes.
