"Only you think it makes sense that the average guy sees his taxes go from $6488 to $3128"

And only you think that it doesn't! It's been pointed out repeatedly to you by many posters that the FairTax lowers taxes for most taxpayers - this is merely an example of it.

And I call Big BS (tm) on all you FairTaxers who believe that it is possible for a change in the tax collection system with a revenue neutral amount collected to cause the average American taxpayer to cut his tax bill in half. It is absurd and goes to show that GIGO-- Garbage In, Garbage Out.

Why in it Garbage In? The tax rate is obviously too low. And I've explained why many times before.

The actual tax rate will not be 29.87%, it will be closer to 50%, or higher, and that high of a rate won't work unless you go to a cashless society and put machine-gun carrying gendarmes at every retail location.
