10. Government Taxes Itself. One amazing thing is under the Sale Tax is that government somehow raises money by taxing itself. Whereas this is an interesting way to reduce government, it is typical of the smoke and mirrors the fraudulent analysis of the so-called fair taxers use.

Do government agents pay income tax? E.g. George Bush?

Yes they do.

Talk about fraudulent analyses.

Government agents do, but not governments. If a state has 100 employees and pay them $1 billion, under the sales tax they will now have to come up with $1.3 billion to keep the same number of employees? Where does that extra money come from? Maybe it is a tricky way to try to get governments to cut, I would be all for that. But the reality is it will just lead to governments have to tax more to keep the same level of so-called services.
