[Always Right]

You also do know you are arguing with Harvard Economist on this too?

No, actually it is the fair taxers who are at odds with the former Harvard Economist Dr. Dale Jorgenson. Fair taxers claim hidden taxes do not include employee taxes such as payroll and their share of FICA. But Dr. Jorgenson says they do. By this misstatement alone the fair taxers create a $1 Trillion 'benefit' out of thin air.

I think you are a little bit confused. Dr, Jorgenson was only factoring his formula it from the Seller perspective, and not the consumer. The fair tax would thus eliminate those taxes since it is a RETAIL tax only. After all the real name to it is the National Retail Sales Tax or the NRST. The name the Fair tax came from people who studied it. They realized this would be the fairest tax, and thus that is why we call it the fair tax.
