You have proven repeatedly that you are not mentally equipped to understand this legislation and I have no intention of rehashing the same old discussion with you. The record is already there on the previous threads.

I happen to be one of those people who knows that this FairTax has no chance of getting passed since it is a big lie, so I am not spending any time worrying about discussing it again. I'm just pointing out to any new people thinking about jumping on the FairTax band wagon that there are major flaws in the way it is being sold, including in this article which perpetuates the "Keep 100% of your paycheck" Free Lunch myth which has been totally exposed as wrong even by Boortz himself.

Here is the big lie that we are supposed to be so afraid of:

Under the fair tax either A) Workers keep 100% of their paychecks and prices for goods and services go up by some amount or B)Workers keep the same paycheck they have now and prices - across the board - drop like a rock.

In both scenarios the income tax, payroll tax and all the attendant compliance and IRS gestapo-ism goes away.

THAT is the big lie we are supposed to assume will prevent the fair tax from ever becoming law. Read RFG's link. That's all it is. Yawn.

As a witness on theses threads for many years I can say without equivocation that it is you that either doesn't understand the FairTax legislation or, more probable, you willfully chose to deceive the reader. Concurrently, pigdog has proven his veracity by presenting the facts honestly. People make errors, the honest person acknowledges his or her errors and then corrects them in order to benefit by the process.

More of your lies!!! The "Free Lunch" notion is something you conjured up as a strawman to rail against.

Indeed the record is there on many different threads (and other than just your own vanity posts that you normally link to), and the record shows you're full of beans ... as well as dishonesty.

You have recently admitted you had opposed the FairTax all along while at first you made the pretense of only needing to have one or two shmall things explained to you when all along you were merely hiding your 100% opposition. That's a disgusting form of deceit - but right in line with the rest of your dishonesty.

Your misstatements are childishly inept since there has not been a "... myth which has been totally exposed as wrong even by Boortz himself ...". That's merely more of your own wishful thinking - and nonsense to boot. Groww up!!

Obviously post #18 wants to deny the fact that federal taxes are removed from income and replaced with one tax on consumption. The insults to you only prove he is very frustrated with this simple concept.

"I happen to be one of those people who knows that this FairTax has no chance of getting passed since it is a big lie....."

So why are you spending your time posting to FairTax threads?
