Since I already pay almost 30 percent of my income in fed taxes I see no problem with the FT. For me the issue is I can decide, when I consume a product, whether the added cost of the tax makes it worth it for me to buy the item. It puts control over my money back in my hands. Furthermore, it would take huge amounts of power away from the federal government, since they wouldn’t be able to give tax breaks to those they support and increase taxes on those they don’t like. Just the savings in not having to file income taxes every year would be huge.

Huh? What's gonna stop them from doing stuff like passing cigarette taxes and making windmills exempt from the tax?
