The Tax Reform Commission is rejecting an NRST based on the estimates of one carefully-chosen economist who is willing to stipulate that such a national sales tax would have to be in the 60-80% range. This is totally fraudulent, of course.

Columbia, MO's KSSZ-FM 93.9 has moved THE NEAL BOORTZ SHOW from one hour at 1pm-2pm Central to 3 HOURS at 9pm-12midnight Central.

And Boortz/Linder's claim of 23% is just as fraudulent.

No, the 'FairTax' rate will be about 30%.

The feds spend 2.5 trillion. The GDP is over 12.5 trillion. Approximately two-thirds of that (8.25 trillion) is consumer spending. 2.5 trillion divided by 8.25 trillion is an inclusive federal sales tax rate of 30%. To say that government will pay taxes to itself is a circular argument.

Evasion will be massive at a 30% rate.
