So you're telling us that you reject tax reform because the leading option is marketed improperly (in your view). Ahem. Is there any other reason you'd be willing to share?
No, as you've hopefully realized by now. It was just an observation. I do object to the FairTax, though. In fact I have two objections: one in the case that it does'nt improve life economically for citizens; and one in case it does.
If it doesn't really improve things for citizens, then I object on precisely those grounds. (As an aside, I consider this the likeliest case.)
If it does improve things for citizens, I object on the grounds that it makes such things as: the NEA; farm subsidies for Ted Turner; the department of education; etc., bearable. Making those things bearable is a terrible idea, because it reduces the incentive to put a stop to them.
So I guess it's not fair to say I'm absolutely opposed to the FairTax; I'm only opposed under two conditions. One is that it doesn't live up to its promise. The other is that it does.
