You're merely exposing your own ignorance once again, Looey.

The taxes embedded (hidden) in the prices of things by the cascading mechanism I've continually illustrated are not part of the revenue neutral concept at all, but are part of the inflated prices paid by consumers IN ADDITION TO THE "NORMAL" INCOME TAXES THEY PAY.

That's why many call them hidden taxes, Looey. They cannot be easily seen and are not normally recognized as tax revenue - since they are not part of the normal tax revenue from the consumer. The revenue neutral terminology comes from revenue raised by the normal income taxes (not the hidden taxes which just boost prices). Inflation (generally purposely implemented and boosted by the Fed) is also a hidden tax as well - but I suppose you don't believe that either.

The embedded tax costs discussed WILL be eliminated by removing the income tax and prices will drop because of that. You're welcome to keep on paying the same old prices though if it makes you happy.

OHHH, you said "hidden tax", you didn't say it was - a secret tax- not counted as tax revenue... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! TOO FUNNY!... WHAT A FRIGG'N IDIOT YOU ARE!
Inflation (generally purposely implemented and boosted by the Fed) is also a hidden tax as well - but I suppose you don't believe that either.
And guess what, unlike your -secret tax-, it's also accounted for. So now you're going to claim the Fairtax eliminates the FED?...Otherwise what's your point?

You're either really stupid or you're banking on anyone reading your tripe is.
