Nor does our endorsement call for reduced federal spending.

And that is actually a lie too. The fair tax plan actually increases spending since it chagers sales tax to federal and state government. If a teacher's salary is 40K, the state will now have to pay an ADDITIONAL 12K to the feds for sales tax, unless the state somehow gets teachers to agree to take a 23 percent wage cut. And the possibility of that happening is about zero. The reality is the fair tax analysis is a fraud and their supporters are liars. That is why the Presidential tax panel did not use any of the fair tax figures because they knew most of their assumption were crap.

I hadn't even considered that. Good point.
