You've posted the 9/30 reco prediction previously?? Must have been really enlightening since it has slipped my mind. Perhaps you could post it again since I'm sure inquiring minds want to know.

What makes it so "obvious" to you that I'm "... not a rational person ..." - merely because I realize the FairTax obtains much more tax revenue from the underground economy than an income tax system??? Perhaps you could explain the "irrationality" of that.

Pointing out the obvious flaws and oversights in the Staff's "analysis" (which seems to have the force of law with you) is quite different than just disagreeing with them (which I also do) or merely calling them biased.

It is showing very clearly that they have not considered things that obviously have large economic effects and therefore skews their presentations (presumably accidentally) in a direction deleterious to the FairTax. And those are only things that are on the surface. Once more is known about their derivations it will, I'm sure, be quite apparent that they were off-base in a number of other areas also.

The reason you think I'm "biased" of course is that I disagree with you. In the case of the Panel Staff I don't just "declare" them biased, but show where their analysis if off base and inaccurate.

Based on what? They have posted but a thumbnail sketch of their methodology. So how were you able to show "where their analysis if off base and inaccurate."

The fact is you didn't and you can't. Your opinion of their analysis is prejudiced.
