So, there's nothing in your example except ACTUAL TAX PAID, right?

And the most prices can drop in your example is the amount of the ACTUAL TAX PAID, right?

And the amount received by the government in tax revenue is the amount of ACTUAL TAX PAID, right?

And the "cascading" raises the prices by EXACTLY the amount of the ACTUAL TAX PAID, right?

So where does your example show prices rising MORE than the amount of ACTUAL TAX PAID, all of which is replaced by the FairTax ...

... or is that too complex for you to follow?

Why gee, Dimp-Dimp - yes, I think I understand what you have claimed since your implication leaves no doubt that I am a liar, cheat, fraud, etc.

There's only one thing wrong - and it stems from the fact that you do not and never have understood the example or what it shows.

In fact all 5 of your charges are incorrect in one or more particulars but having already said I'll not waste more time trying to educate you I'll not do so. You'll have to live with you misunderstandings until the FairTax becomes law ... and even then I'll doubt you'll grasp what's involved. It's certain you don't now.

This post clearly indicates you haven't grasped the educational material (or, more likely, don't wish to). Go right on with your anti-FairTax agenda since I think most readers will grasp what you're up to.

I don't know what sort of life's work you do but it surely must not be economics. Are you, perchance, just a professional complainer?
