None of the SQL (Status Quo Lover)tribe can afford to admit that there is any such thing as embedded tax costs since it destroys your arguments about people having lower wages, prices being higher, etc.

None of the FairTax crowd can identify any such thing as embedded tax costs that are not income or payroll taxes, so their whole program is a sham.

"None of the FairTax crowd can identify any such thing as embedded tax costs that are not income or payroll taxes..."

Sure we can. We have stated many times that the compliance costs of the current system are enormous and that they get imbedded, also. Can you explain why income and payroll taxes cannot legitimately be counted? Is that a rule that you just made up?
