You may hate it, but to say ANYTHING would be better is just a crackpot thing to say. There are many things that need to be included in any plan, including transition effects, enforcement mechanisms, revenue generation capability, simplicity, does it favor/disfavor certain groups of AMericans as compared with present system,...

If this was an easy thing to achieve, it would have already been achieved. You should seriously question anyone who tells you it will be painless, everyone will come out ahead (except illegals), and that there will be no strong enforcement authority.

It is a pipedream.

This system loses with me.

I don't want to hear about it being flexed, adapted, improved, simplied, or amplified.

I want to hear that it's dead. Stone cold dead.

And then I'll break out into song.

Our tax system is an abomination.

No, Robbie, the FairTax is just fine ... YOU are the pipedream.

Most taxpayers would be greatly helped by the FairTax and that's been amply demonstrated with verifiable numbers from valid sources. All you're come up with is "can't happen" ... "buncha dreams" ... "many things need to be included" ... etc., etc. etc. In short ANYTHING to try to make the FairTax and/or those supporting it out to be a lie or liars. And you've never been able to do that because you don't have verifiable numbers. All you can to is continue to post your meaningless vanity posts which were refuted long ago (but which you're still oh, so proud of).

You're one of the few who is mentally inept enough to believe the income tax is wonderful. And yet you can never show us how most taxpayers are helped by it - as is the case with the FairTax.
