Under the Fair Tax....you don't have to pay if you don't want to....just don't buy anything new!

Is "new" the keyword ?

What about gas for my car to go to work ?

What about materials in case my home needs repair ?

What about the materials if my car needs repair ?

Yes, NEW is the keyword. The FT applies to purchases of NEW goods and services by the end user.

Gas for your car would be taxed; but keep in mind the currently embedded income tax considerations would be removed.

Materials for home repairs would be subject to the tax

Materials for auto repairs would be taxed.

Not to mention food, child care, utilities, repairs, perhaps lawyers will begin selling used wills.
