I'm not looking for any sort of national sales tax of any percentage, especially one above 20%. Nice and quick way to kill an economy.

Then their 30% rate in sales tax terms would be out of the question for you?

The nrst rate is about the same amount of fed tax and tax costs you're already paying today in prices. The nrst just makes it visible. That so many folks don't know prices contain a 20-25% tax cost component is a testament to the effectiveness of the income tax at hiding taxes.

The nrst doesn't increase prices.
