"Class Warfare would be DEAD forever and..."
Though that would be a beautiful thing, it won't happen because of any government intervention or programs. Class warfare will exist until God finishes his work on the earth, this is why Christians call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to come and set up his government on the earth( after the 7 year tribulation to bring all nations to the rule and reaign of Lord Jesus).
As long as there is sin, there is class warfare.

"Class Warfare would be DEAD forever and..."
Those were the author's words, not mine. It may be a bit of oversell to say that passing the FairTax would end class warfare. Perhaps a more judicious statement might be that removing the tax code would take away one of the class warfarist's (hope thats a word) most powerful tools.
It is sort of analagous to what it would do to lobbyists and special interest groups. It would not immediately eliminate them from trying to do what they do. What it would do would be to drastically reduce their opportunities to extract favors at the expense of the rest of us.
Its kind of like if you have a destructive dog that turns over trash cans and pees all over your neighbors shrubs. If you fence him in, you don't change his nature, but you minimize the damage that he can do.
