Yea and the raw materials bought by the "corporations" for their product are taxed and passed on to the stupid consumers who pay for the tax again at the cash register.

With the Fair Tax, nothing is taxed until there is a retail sale. So, raw materials would not be taxed. Only the end product purchased at retail would be taxed.

You must not have read anything on the Fair Tax if you do not know this keystone of the whole idea.
