A national sales tax is such a nonstarter of an idea. The amount of tax evasion and fraud would be orders of magnitude greater than it is now.

Really? How do you figure? The vast bulk of the states already have and successfully collect sales tax. There are also, by definition, a whole lot fewer people to chase when you’re only chasing businesses to remit a sales tax rather than the hundreds of millions of people who you have to chase for income taxes.
