[Final Authority]

I have commented on this ion exactly the same way since 2000. I went toe to toe with Chief Negotiator over the case as written by these good folks. The so-called FairTax is a way to increase to total tax take because we will never be totally without an income tax because the liberals would not ever stand for it but the liberals also want a minimum standard of living guarantee or minimum personal income provided by the government as an entitlement. There are sites on the web of socialist groups touting the FairTax as a way to deliver the USA into the world of pure Socialism.

Never agree to an additional tax, no matter who promises or what good intentions are promised, never, never, period.

Links, please?

Generally speaking, the LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist Bastard's agenda forces them to violently oppose any form of taxation other than steeply progressive income taxes (second plank of the Communist Manifesto).

For that reason, I'd be very much surprised if any legitimate LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist Bastard group supports the Fair Tax!

Those of us who do support the Fair Tax are 100% opposed to the Communist Manifesto! Right Bigun?

FRom time to time, we will see a poster on these tax threads make the accusation that we are socialists or somesuch, but I have always believed that those who call us socialists are scaremongering or, perhaps, projecting?
