No it isn't. Tax base is WHAT is taxed not WHO is taxed.
Okay, the FairTax base is new retail items for consumption. The income tax base is incomes. Now it's correct.
Now it's your turn. The FairTax (H.R.25) explicitly taxes only retail goods for consumption with the expressed intent of taxing those items once and only once. As well, the FairTax eliminates the income tax code and its muscle, the IRS. The FairTax base (retail goods) is much, much larger than the number of incomes tax base (incomes). But you already know all of that. Thus you were being intentionally deceptive (when you wrote: "The Fairtax tax base already taxes everything new, what's it going to expand to, taxing everything used, taxing income?"390
BTW, thanks for assisting me in correcting my error in order to make sure I accurately and specifically identified your dishonesty. (shaking head in near disbelief) You're sooo easy!
The FairTax base (retail goods) is much, much larger than the number of incomes tax base (incomes).But it collects the same amount AND pays out MORE in negative taxes...so (without more personal insults if you're capable) what's your point?

`(A) IN GENERAL- The term `taxable employer' includes--In case you don't understand it, it's your 30% (not 23%) fairtax imposed ON wages, salaries and benefits of "any government employee"....And it's HUGE! Not to mention you omitted the Fairtax is also imposed on services....(shaking head in near disbelief) You're sooo`(i) any household employing domestic servants, and
`(ii) any government except for government enterprises (as defined in section 704).

The tax base is people and you know that. It figures you'd deceptively switch the tax base -- people -- into new/used products being the tax base. Lewislynn, you're dishonest to the boneLOL! Those are all your words sooo, who was being what again?----
