The only way we'll get more money from the drug dealers and prostitutes and other criminals is if they start charging the Fair Tax on their services and they send that money the the federal government.

Criminals, prostitutes and others engaged in a non-disclosed cash system don't pay any income taxes now.

But, all the above buy cars, clothes, homes, TV's, computers, etc. When they make these purchases under the Fair Tax, they are contributing to Federal revenue.

Now, they're in the system.

In addition, foreign tourist are paying.

And, if you decide that you don't want to pay taxes, don't buy anything.

"And, if you decide that you don't want to pay taxes, don't buy anything." Actually, don't buy anything new.

This is the key and the real reason for the opposition of the Fair Tax. Under the Fair Tax you can actually exercise your FREEDOM. This concept is just unthinkable by the left or the right.
