Let's try this again. So lets see the Fair Tax will basically remove all taxes business pay (or most). Now we say, for argument sake, will reduce the cost of a loaf of bread by 22%. Now I go in the store and find the loaf reduced by 22% and then the added tax brings it back to the original price. Really helped the hell out of it for me on my small fixed income. Oh, I forgot, my monthly check, without paperwork (Ha), will reduce my overall price of the loaf of bread down to approximately 22% lower that it would have been before the Fair Tax was in effect.

OK, lets try! And hope the hell the business man will voluntary lower the price of that loaf of bread after he has the luxury of paying lower taxes. Whoops, forgot, what is financing the State and Local taxes. I know what is said, but where in the hell do we think it will satisfy the State or Locals. Taxes are sh--................... There is no answer. Get a life. The simplest answer is limit the tax code to one 8 1/2 by 11 page of instructions with twenty blanks to fill out on the one page form to mail in!!!!!!! Cutting BS is always the simplest way.

Are you looking for a tax scheme to help you out personally? That is not the intent of the nrst - it is the intent of the income tax. Support the income tax all day if you like.

And hope the hell the business man will voluntary lower the price of that loaf of bread after he has the luxury of paying lower taxes.

Do you think business will voluntarily lower prices? That would be stupid. He will be forced to do so or go out of business (supposing he's in a competitive market - 'course if he's in a monopoly he already charges what he pleases).

The simplest answer is limit the tax code to one 8 1/2 by 11 page of instructions with twenty blanks to fill out on the one page form to mail in!!!!!!! Cutting BS is always the simplest way.

Where do I sign up? I'm all for this.
