No, nobody says that except you. And it's really a dumb statement.
If you find someone else saying it, let me know. Hint: it won't be there.
What will be there is something different than you think. You are unable so far to understand that there are costs to the income tax system other than the tax themselves.
For example, I'd be willing to make and sell more of my product at its current profit... but by earning more, my marginal profit decreases to the point I choose not to make and sell them. Of course there are other types of costs that are a result of the income tax. That was just one.
I understand the costs quite well. I pay for it every year. But what you don't understand is, no matter what the tax system is, I still need an accountant to account for all my expenses. I still need to know how much I make and to provide banks with financial statements. The cost of filling out forms 941, 1120S, 1040, 1099, W-4 really ain't that big of deal and really won't be much different under a Fair Tax. I still have monthly sales forms to submit and I still have payroll info I must send to Social Security Admin. What you save me amounts to squat. Really you tax system does not do crap as far as saving me money, and I really don't see how it is gonna save other businesses. To tell me I understand it, when it is really you who are ignorant about costs of compliance.
For example, I'd be willing to make and sell more of my product at its current profit... but by earning more, my marginal profit decreases to the point I choose not to make and sell them.
And you are a nut. That makes no sense.
Bullcrap, you guys say that on every thread. You tell us that prices will come down 30% but you haven't one f-ing clue how. Your numbers don't add up to anywhere near 30%. You guys are so f-ing clueless and so f-ing dumb it is beyond pointless to explain anything to you.
