Would a 30% federal sales tax cause a depression?

Does the FairTax "prebate" constitute the largest welfare program in history, effectively putting every man, woman, and child in the USA on the dole?

Will the FairTax result in both a federal sales tax *AND* a federal income tax because it doesn't repeal the 16th Amendment to the US Constitution?

Yes, yes, and yes.

No, because people would have 30% more of their paycheck than they do now.

The entire premise behind the fair tax is to repeal the 16th. Having been on these threads for as long as you have you know that. You are a prevaricator.
