[Your Nightmare]

"... business income tax is not a tax and isn't revenue that would have to be replaced by the FairTax ..."

Sorry, Nightie - misstating what I have said won't cut it either, no matter how much you'd like it to. I've said nothing like your misshapen claim. Business income taxes ARE indeed taxes and will be covered by the FairTax. Price increases caused by the "hidden taxes" (which as I've repeatedly shown and stated are not taxes at all) are removed rather than being covered by the FairTax.

pigdog from #524:

"You've completely missed the point that the 'hidden taxes' are not taxes at all, but artificially-increased prices caused solely by the business income tax and compliance costs."

"The 'hidden taxes' themselves (since they are not taxes but unproductive price increases) do not need to be replaced by a revenue neutral FairTax. Instead they are removed - POOF! Gone!!"

... do you have a point to make, Nightie, or do you wish to incessantly babble?

Note that the lead-in quote in your post is YOURS, not mine.

My post $524 said, indeed, that business taxes WERE taxes and "hidden taxes" were not. That seems to confuse you but then you don't grasp the entire concept of cascading embedded taxes and how they become part of increased prices.

If you have some point in #529 please state it since I know what I posted and you seem not to.
