probably not. The FAIR tax resembles the present income tax enough where they don’t need it. A FAIR tax is still a progressive income tax where those who earn little get a handout and those who earn more pay a higher percentage.

The only real difference is the retarded “prebate”

I would be thrilled to see the Fair Tax. It would be far better than the monstrosity that we have today.

Other than needing a constitutional amendment are there any other reasons to object to the 50 State Tax? A constitutional amendment is a big wall to climb and would gladly accept the Fair Tax a means to walk around that wall.

A 50 State Tax would cost the taxpayers almost nothing to collect and completely eliminates the entire IRS collection apparatus. That savings could be returned to the taxpayers in the form of lower taxes.

Those states with rational tax collecting policies would thrive. Those that don’t wouldn’t.
