When another man owns the legal right to the wages you earn, you are by definition his slave.

"Fair Tax" is still an income tax.

I believe I get your point, but there’s a world of difference between the 2

- FT is ‘in your face’ on every receipt
- FT effects EVERYONE
- FT is VOLUNTARY

Concur, it does little for the trampling of our 5th and 13th A. Rights.

still, I would rather have 20 steps forward and 2 back instead of 1 forward 2 back

Well, it is patently obvious to me and every other person on this thread that you have no idea what the FairTax is about!

FairTax is a consumption tax!

Please explain the convoluted logic that led you to the conclusion that FairTax was an income tax.

No, the nrst “fair tax” is a consumption tax. It is not levied against income, it is levied against retail expenditures.
