Seriously, you can't be that naive. Talk to some who lived through WWII or even some of their children.

I'm not naive nor will I let you get away with that. If I talked to them what would they say? You want the reader to think people that lived through WWII will say the worst so why don't you just say the worst for them. Here, I'll help with a history lesson:

"During World War II the personal income tax rose to a peak of 94 percent, and the corporate income tax to 40 percent. For the first time in United States history (and thereafter) middle income citizens became subject to the levies of the IRS, not just the wealthy. But a tax rebellion ensued as the consequence. The IRS resolved this impasse by blackmail; any taxpayer who would give permission for withholding 1943 income tax was forgiven paying 1942 income taxes.
"This level of taxation was perhaps understandable given the state of total mobilization for a national emergency. But why should tax rates have been left at wartime personal level until 1963, and on corporations until 1981 during peacetime? The war had continued – against American taxpayers". REVOLTING TAXATION

You compare that very real history to your sensationalism of what possibly potentially, may, could happen with the FairTax. The FairTax is 23% and only applies to new retail purchase for consumption, not 94% tax on personal income nor 40% corporate tax. The FairTax eliminates personal income tax. The FairTax eliminates corporate tax and associated compliance cost. The Fair tax eliminates withholding that the federal government convinced the people to swallow by using propaganda and Donald Duck to send its message. Plus the deception of forgoing 1942 income taxes. Rather than paying 1942 taxes in one lump sum on March 15, 1943 people paid those taxes via withholding every week of 1943.
