There will be no FairTsax bill with a 3% rate that is supported by the FairTax movement. That would only be a hybrid tax and probably worse than what we presently have.

You need to read the FairTax bill - obviously you haven't (or possibly don't understand what it says).

I read the bill five years ago, it is like fish and house guests, it stunk when it arrived and stinks more everyday.

You are correct for once. There indeed will be no FartTax bill passed with a 3% tax rate, but rather, it will be called something like the federal treasury income augmentation act, or, the federal tax evaders collection effort, or something like that, and it will be a sales tax with all sorts of "handles" that allow future sessions of congress and the administrating department to make new law, tinkering with the original intent.
