LOL, hardly one man's guess was involved in the analysis and authorship of HR25. Furthermore, assessment of economic and political benefits to the individual are easily apparent to anyone willing to look at it without a predisposed bias or agenda against it.You see Jorgenson so often, only because his early foundational works, prior to and independant of his contributrions to the FairTax legislation, can be found on the internet for easy reference. The Jorgenson papers referenced here are the studies out of which the initial choice of direction to go was made. Unfortunately his specific contributions to AFFT in creation of the legislation is not available on the internet for review.Are you sure you fools want to gamble the entire US economy one man's unsubstantiated guess?
Just a sampling of the founding research participants for the FairTax as implemented in HR25 can be found below.
