And also don't post trash like this claiming it's your work or that you've done soimething. It is complete nonsense as I said and as I've demonstrated. I asked for YOUR work - not the Panel's

I guess you missed the credit to the Tax Panel and that the quote was placed in italics indicating that it was a quote.

No you didn't ask for my work, you asked for "recognized sources". The Tax Panel used data prepared for them by the Treasury Department.

There you go with the link to links again. I don't mind following a link, but which one are you referring to (there are three at the top of the page), and why don't you just link to the material you want me to read.

"You're more than welcome to put up your own set of verifiable numbers using recognized sources to show that the income tax benefits more taxpayers that does the Fairtax "

Ah, but I DID ask you to put up your own set of numbers. The ones you used are hardly those of your own but of the Tax Panel's which I'd already showed you were bogus - and did again in #572.

I'm sure that means you have no numbers of your own to work from so you'll merely keep pushing the discredited and dishonest Panel report. This report is hardly news - but it seems to be "all you got" since you can't think for yourself arithmetically enough to see that the even the 4th example is impossible in the extreme as it shows a 41% tax rate rather than 23%. Most people (being honest) would see that as a red flag.

You, OTOH, see that as an opportunity to post a completely ridiculous report written by the Brookings cronies in Treasury - and make no mistake, they are all opposed to the FairTax as they see it (wrongly) as a "stay employed" issue. However the fact remains that I DID ask you for YOUR work and not that of your source. You've done none of this work you see. As for "3 links at the top of the page", what post are you referring to?
