Gee, and here I though that "purchase" meant "to buy". What is the mechanism you believe that allows anyone to buy a tax inclusive item without paying the tax?

I read AFFT's FAQ#3 to say that it is the tax paid on poverty level expenditures that is replaced by the prebate and not the untaxed price of the things themselves. Perhaps not but that seems to be what their examples show.

I'm sure they'd be greatly appreciative if you send them a quick email explaining how they are wrong (since you're the one who understands this). That way we could stop wasting bandwidth.

The items AREN'T TAX INCLUSIVE - the payment is. You purchase the items, you make a payment for the purchase and the FairTax.

Unless you would like to explain how you can "purchase" or "buy" a sales tax.

You assume they don't know they are wrong. I don't.
