Maybe the reason your reply is non-responsive is because you do not understand this type of business, where nearly 100% of my income is a result of my labor.

I have a one to two percent compliance cost, and maybe one to two percent equipment cost, with the percentage depending on whether I’ve had a good year or only a so-so year.

So, I could either pass on the 30% tax to my clients or pay it out of my pocket. But I can’t do both; there’s only one 30% figure, not two.

I certainly would NOT be reducing my day rate immediately, by relying on the CLAIM that prices and costs will be reduced all over the place. That claim is yet to be proven in practice, no matter how many time FTers repeat it.

Maybe the reason you ignore my relevant statements, poor attempt claiming my reply is non responsive and lack of an alternative is due either to a state of denial or support for a tax code that is used as a tool for controlling individuals. The question then becomes what advantages do you feel the Income tax has over the Fair Tax enough to maintain the oppressive status quo?
