Unless you read a different fairtax bill and also have a different definition of a VAT.
There is also a book that has been written about the fairtax and the model for the bill.
Actually (looking at your original post on the subject again) it sounds as though we are really saying the same thing - the FairTax is not a VAT and cannot be morphed into one.
And that was specifically designed that way due to the difficulties associated with the VAT plans.
