He's not MY expert and I doubt that you have any proof that he was paid as you claim.

Well, here is a fairtax powerpoint presentation located on a fairtax website which includes background information on the fairtax. They clearly say that Jorgenson was funded by AFFT.

Not - that's NOT what it says at all. It says he was a participant in economic research. It doesn't say he was paid. You'll have to find his cancelled check (or something akin to that) to make such a claim and have it accepted.

Also, you'll notice that stated is a range of reduced prices (from income tax removal) of from 18-28% and NOT the 23% that has been so widely misused by FairTax opponents.

A nice ppt presentation - which I'd seen earlier, but thanks.

I must have missed that part. Page 3 says that he was an "Economic Research Participant". I don't see any indication with respect to remuneration. Can you cite the page number where I can find that?
