Would you trust someone pedaling a 30% sales tax as a 23% sales tax?

Would you say "That sounds fair, you're a very trustworthy fellow"?

One man, one vote, one tax bill. Everyone equal under the law.

I wouldn't trust someone who pedals the dollar amount collected with the 30% tax exclusive rate with the Fair Tax as if it will be more than the amount collected with the 23% tax inclusive rate with the income tax. The truth is the dollar amount collected from former rate will be the same as the latter rate.

I find it interesting that the opponents of the Fair Tax would want to keep the Karl Marx Income Tax.

Yes, Karl Marx is the father of income tax

I am no Huckabee fan, but the FairTax is a much better way to raise revenue without punishing achievement.

I dont know about you, but a tax proposed by John Linder and Neal Boortz is a helluva lot better than a tax proposed by Karl Marx

30% to start with, with no cap.

“One man, one vote, one tax bill. Everyone equal under the law.”

I saw this on another thread, yesterday, and a responder called you on it. I’m wondering if you’ve crafted an appropriate response to his/her questions?

Just what do you mean by this? Everyone pays the same amount? Every person over 18? Regardless of income and other circumstances? What amount?
