Well he was doing fairly well until he got to the "You earn $80,000 cause your boss keeps $20,000 in taxes" part.

Wrong your boss feels you are worth $100,000 to him and that is what he pays you. He just has to take out the governments $20,000 before he hands you the rest.

If an hourly worker is working for $10 an hour and the Fair Tax passes do you really think a boss is going to walk up to a worker and say "Hey, the Fair Tax passed, I'm only going to pay you $7.50 and hour."

Thanks for the ping
