"What's there to understand? Everybody understands."
Obviously you DON'T understand which is indicated by your continuing to post the same nonsense with the name calling.
It's amazing that the Moderator doesn't ban you for your continued abusive posts to myself and others.
The mechanism is as I've shown in #577 and the comments there are relevant to the rate determination - despite the fact you don't understand what was said in the post.
It shows that precisely the opposite of what you and your colleagues contend:
"... #302 which said "... the law gives taxing power to SS bureaucrats ...". That is simply not true - they have no ability to change the FairTax rate at all (specified in Sec. 101) as I've shown here. Or his #233 which said "... after the first year the unelected bureaucrats at Social Security could implement their new congressional taxing power and raise the rate to 25 or even 30% without a vote from congress ..." which, again, is simply not the case as I've shown here."
Or perhaps you'd like to now pretend that you've never considered such positions of your colleagues to be correct?
It is not nonsense. I am calling a bold face lie what it is. You lied and you continue to lie. You are a pathetic liar. Thread after thread after thread you lie. Whether you keep insisting something I clearly labeled an 'assumption' a 'prediction', or whether you are denying you posted a table only to later say it was a spreadsheet listing (as if there is a difference), you lie consistently. This is just the latest example of many. The fact that you can't admit a lie that is so black and white is pathetic.
You can not deny said this:
PIGDOG post 473: "I've said nothing about any Congressional action in raising the rate since that will clearly not be required."
And you can't deny in previous posts you most certainly did say what you denied:
post 319 by pigdog: "The infamous "unelected bureaucrats raising taxes" ploy you've continually tried (unsuccessfully) to use isn't correct and never has been. They merely determine the split of tax revenue required to fund the S/S entitlement as required by S/S law - which it should be noted isn't part of the FairTax law at all. They have no power to raise (or lower) the FairTax rate ... that's what we pay the "big bux" to Congress for."
post 328 by pigdog: "Any change in the overall FairTax rate would have to be done by Congress, not some "unelected bureaucrat".
post 351 by pigdog: " And to change the FairTax rate it would, indeed, take congressional action."
post 368 bt pigdog: "This means that the remaining portion which is the General Revenue Rate will in effect increase since the other two have decreased and the statutory rate for all three combined must be 23% (or whatever the rate ends up as in the bill) unless changed by Congress."
This is so black and white. You are IMPOSSIBLE to debate with because you are so dishonest. You post some 3000 word essay in response that doesn't even address your lie. You change the subject and go on and on about other things. After all this posting, I still have no idea whether you understand the 23% rate can change without an act of Congress. Getting you to comprehend/admit a simple fact is extremely frustrating, because you will never admit anything if you think it might make the fairtax look bad. You are by far the most dishonest Freeper this forum puts up with. Forget all the name-calling you do on every thread, you should be banned for being a BOLD-FACE LIAR.
