the fair tax isn’t fair. flat tax on all income
flat tax on all purchases..
lets stop penalizing income.
A tax on income is inherently wrong because it taxes you based on the measure of your productivity. The fair tax taxes you based on consumption.
Far better would be to tax states based on their representation, apportioned just like Congress. The states then decide how to collect and pay that tax.
The advantage there is that no fed has contact with a citizen.
IMO the fair tax would raise a lot more revenue. Every tourist who comes here from another country on vacation or for business would be paying tax everytime they bought something. All the 11-20 illegals would be paying tax everyday as would the people who run cash only enterprises.
