We need a 20% tariff and a NRST. Kill the income tax and watch the USA explode economically..

Relative to imported goods, the FairTax IS a 23% border tax, and, unlike the proposed “Border Tax” that is being bandied about in WDC, is completely legal according to international law.

IOW, border adjustable taxes (VAT/GST taxes, which are rebated to companies exporting goods and imposed on imported goods at the point of sale) are legal whereas a specific “Border Tax,” imposed at the border is not legal.

As I mentioned in post #23, FairTax levels the playing field in respect of US imports and exports.

That is, after all, the objective here, is it not?
