I don't have any real argument against NRST, as long as congress is prohibited from changing the tax levels, willy-nilly, whenever they feel like it..
There has to be harsh constraints on any new tax system to curb abuse by congress, and government in general..
The fairtax is a tax on spending. It's a whole different ballgame.

Think about the beauty of having a sales tax rate at every purchase you make. EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN suddenly sees their tax rate every day. And you think a politician is goin gto get very far talking about an increase? HEHEHE!!!
a constitutional amendment? you mean like the balanced budget amendment, term limits, flag burning, Defense of marriage and all the other ones that failed? We can't count on a repeal of the 16th amendment either
