I do know a bit about the FairTax, which does have a "prebate" built into it for those living below the poverty line. I can certainly appreciate that the slippery slope of where the poverty line is drawn (and who falls below it) is a recipe for abuse. But, with so many people indoctrinated into the government safety net system, how can we move forward with reform without such a provision? The negative PR would cause considerable hurt. I don't disagree with you. Just looking for a viable alternative.
