Sure, right after he pays "uncle" his 30% for the roof over his head and a buck-twenty for the gallon of gas he needs to get to work.

Now I understand. The FairTax can't get your support unless it also eliminates poverty. Again, what part of "The prebate pays the FairTax on the poverty level of spending" don't you understand? To repeat a phrase, the FairTax refund undercuts that old "don't tax the poor" mantra.

Wrong again.

The FairTax (permission to live tax) puts the federal government in the middle and with its hand out before any legal transaction can take place, with exception of used items as defined by the FairTax (the FairTax bill redefines used as previously untaxed rather than previously owned).

Again, what part of "The prebate pays the FairTax on the poverty level of spending" don't you understand?

I understand that it is flawed based on statistics that are flawed.
