Talk about pure fantasy, the artificially-inflated FairTax rates you quote are obviously out of whack ... maybe they should be called (im)pure fantasy. Sounds like the old liberal "cut out as much of the base as possible to boost the rate" trick.
Once details of the Panel "staff" projections become available for perusal, the truth will come out. In the meantime, don't hold your breath. They're obviously leaving out stuff.
I wonder ... do you suppose these "staff" work for Treasury??? Isn't Treasury the bunch that operates to $10B, 115,000 - man department called the IRS??? Could that influence any Treasury types to NOT want to see their budget (read political clout) cut??? Whaddya' thimk (and, yes, that's spelled "thimk"), Nightie???

You and the AFT got it all figured out and if anyone disagrees with you they must be a trying to protect the status quo. As if Treasury is going away if the FairTax were passed.
