False, but nice try. I posited no such thing.
that it is neither necessary OR desireable to repeal the 16th first since absolutely eliminating the income tax etc. prevents it from coming right back into being.
False, but nice try. In fact, precisely the opposite is true. Hard to believe you can't/don't want to understand that.
Clearly, you want both taxes. It is the only way to interpret your insistence that a constitutional amendment not be made first. Either you want both or you are logically impaired, which is it?
"False, but nice try. I posited no such thing."
Really???? Then you'd better admonish your keyboard since your #104 said:
"... it doesn't eliminate a damn thing. It's not possible for a law to amend the Constitution .... "
... which clearly means you believe I said that the bill was intended to repeal the 16th. There can be no other meaning that I can see. But the bill DOES eliminate the things I said it did. Read the bill yourself and see,
If you intended some other meaning then why the reference to the amending of the Constitution??? Also, how is it you would propose to restore the income tax code, the income tax, the IRS (and funding thereof) as well as reconstituting the destroyed income tax records??
Tell us your plan how this many be accomplished and why, within the alomst 100 years we have had the income tax, that this repeal has never been done despite many attempts??? How is it that you propse it will somehow happen on your watch???
"Clearly, you want both taxes. "
False as hell as you could easily tell by asking any FairTax supporter or by reading the FairTax website where it says clearly that the objective is to repeal the 16th:

I fail to see how even the most dense individual could fail to comprehend such a plain statement as well as the wording in the bill itself calling for he repeal. If you are indeed that dense and foolish you are one of the ideal candidates for guys like Charlie Rangel to give us both taxes at once. You are quite wrong. Why is it do you suppose that the 16th repeal has never happened in a century and will suddenly, magically, happen now???
The answer is - it won't until a tax law is in place that does not depend on an income based tax and that is shown by the last 100 years' experience which have not brought it about. There's no reason to believe this will suddenly so happen because Protagoras says it will.
