(There aint no such thing as a FairTax)

Double digit taxation for single digit IQ's.

Brilliant refutation of the fair tax principle, hard to argue with logic like that.

[Dick Bachert]

We must overlook these periodic outbursts by xcamel. He has worked at the IRS so long his ganglial bundle -- in others it would be called a "brain" -- has atrophied to such a small size that he can barely post the latest CAT scan of his head without assistance from his live-in boyfriend.

Sad -- soo sad...

xcamel,
How about addressing this question intellectually? Tell your fellow Freepers why the current system is superior to the fairtax? If you don't like the current system, tell us what system you would recommend.

Also,
Tell us why more than half of all taxpayers have to pay taxpreps to prepare their tax returns.
Tell us why after the tax reform act of 1986 that politicians have loaded up the tax code with more loopholes, deductions and exemptions, making it more complicated.
Tell us why it is better tax policy to tax productive behavior than to tax consumption.
Tell us why taxpayers still go offshore with their money even when the top tax rate was reduced to 35%.
Tell us why the AMT makes sense.
Please tell us why.
