The “fair” tax is a ripoff of retiree’s who have saved for retirement (double taxation).

You are COMPLETELY full of that which emits from the south end of a north bound bull!

FairTax would be the greatest single step toward regaining our Republic since the war between the states!

And, it’s still better than the mess we have right now.

I’m nearing retirement, myself, and the ranting about the double tax on seniors is an issue that can be addressed as part of the implementation of the Fair Tax model. It should not be a deal killer (can we still say that?).

Give me a break. The same thing is “true” for every single dollar anybody has in his possession on January 1st of whatever year the FAIR Tax goes into effect. If I have $5, and go to the store for food, I could complain that the $5 was taxed already, and is being taxed again as I spend it.

Retirees, and everyone else, would benefit from the economic growth, greater productivity, and lower prices of everything.
