It would alleviate any concerns about having a double tax.
Dear Sonny M,
"Then I'm on board, I'd prefer the "fair tax" be added via constitutional amendment if its possible.
I understand your position.
Unfortunately, that is NOT how this is being handled by the congressional sponsors of the NRST. It is their plan to put the NRST into effect BEFORE any repeal of the 16th amendment.
The NRST legislation, as written, would pass without any repeal of the 16th amendment. Then, we would all cross our fingers and hope that 2/3 of both Houses of Congress, and 3/4 of the states would then ratify a repeal amendment.
Don't let the NRSTers talk you into the idea that we couldn't repeal the 16th amendment first.
For all the bluster and bullsh!t that floats around here as an excuse for reasoning, you can see yourself that the Constitution has previously been amended with postponements of enforcement dates.
Yet, some of the NRSTers will continue to contend (falsely) that you must first pass the NRST before repealing the 16th amendment.
LOL. You know what that will get us.
