Sonny - the Fair tax is the foundation upon which the Dems will launch the VAT process as soon as they takeover control of Congress. And, that day will come. When I do not know. But, it will come.
I do not want a VAT, I'll support a fairtax if we can constitituionalize a way to guarantee no more income tax and also give me a guarantee of no VAT....i.e. I'm for a fair tax, as its written and idealized... but as soon as its not, I'll fight against it every step of the way.
I want guarantees.
