For the 20th time, I never attempted to debate whether those rates will raise or fall. It makes no difference to this point. The point was that the overall rate would automatically change when those rates changed. You keep incorrectly insisting it takes an act of congress to change the 23% rate. However, everybody who can read knows otherwise. You are just acting dense and trying to change the topic to something else. Why not just admit your statement was in error? Instead you keep lying and lying and lying to cover up an error. You are pathetic. Its all in black and white where everyone can read it. People are not that stupid.
"... whether those rates will raise or fall. It makes no difference to this point ..."
Quite the contrary - the direction of change in the economy has a great deal to do with the discussion of the entitlement proportions in the FairTax makeup. Your belief that those proportions can only rise shows your thinking locked into a single specific view of the FairTax ... one at odds with every economic study on the FairTax.
I have not "insisted" as you put it that the 23% rate cannot change, but I have pointed out that the direction of change will be for the rates for the 2 entitlement components will be to fall, not rise as you claim.
Every single real economic study done on the FairTax shows that by the fact they ALL show increased economic activity due to the FairTax which will have the effect of boosting the GRR proportion at the expense of the entitlement portions - and that it would take an act of Congress to lower the 23% rate. I've said nothing about any Congressional action in raising the rate since that will clearly not be required.
Note here that I have called you no names, and made no extraneous charges as you do in your post.
