You'd better read more than just that single sentence, since the paper clearly indicates that 23% is right on the money (or did you know that Congress may decide to freeze spending at the 2006 level which would be right at 23% - or perhaps they'll surprise everyone and cut spending further).

In any event, once a decent dynamic analysis is done, the rate may very well end up lower that the present 23% in the bill (is there an echo in here???).

Quote the exact language where "the paper clearly indicates that 23% is right on the money."

You are asking me if I knew that Congress may decide to freeze spending at the 2006 level? Did you know that Jackass: Number Two may win the Oscar for Best Picture? It's true.

or perhaps they'll surprise everyone and cut spending further

Congress cut spending? When did this happen?

So these are the talking points du juor, the Fairtax is now spending neutral? Would this be the rhetoric of Congressmen trying to get re-elected or the new Congress that hasn't been elected yet?

Cut spending further?
