That is 4.9% of the FairTax base plus exports.

I didn't say anything about the FairTax base, so why bring it up? The 8% comes from rounding down a little the values that came from folks like RobFromGa, where they tried to calculate the corporate tax burden without lowering nominal wages. As far as I can recall, they came up with 9%.

That doesn't make it accurate.
