Sounds like a WONDERFUL idea!Collecting the same amount of money from fewer taxpayers is a "wonderful idea"?
I guess it would be if you weren't one of the few.
If you are talking about the number of returns filed, then yes, it is a wonderful idea. All of us would be paying the tax.
The FairTax is a broader base than the present system Looey, so there are MORE, not fewer payers. Everyone pays the same tax rate with the FairTax.
It's actually collecting more money from more taxpayers - and that includes those in the underground economy who are presently untaxed.
