Sorry Rightie - you're still wrong. It has been shown a number of times that there is a good amount of reduction possible in prices as Kellis91789 points our. You're either too lazy or too ignorant to find out and instead point to obvious hitpieces (the magazine article and the vanity threads by Robbie) misstating the actual case. the economist never said wages would go down in the real world at all.

For 7 years you guys have been trying to spread this BS in attempting to claim that the FairTax was "... lies, lies, all of it lies ...". Sorry, but that's not the case.

Most taxpayers will be far better off under the FairTax except for those - like you - who have carved out their own little (possibly illegal) niche under the present tax system.

You haven't refuted post #61 because you can't ... all you can do is drool and slobber in your graham crackers 'n milk about the horrid FairTax supporters lying to everyone. You seem to think that repeating such nonsense will make it come true - that's something Looey likes to do and you're falling into the same trap.

the exchange between the economist and our vanity post expert (Robbie) was clearly discussing the functioning of his model and didn't represent what he might be projecting to happen in the real world. You may not realize it, but the model and the real world are two quite different things, and in the real world, wages certainly will not be declining to make someone's economic model function. Takehome pay will go up due to contractual agreements and competitive pressures. Count on it.

In addition, there is nothing for AFFT to "clear up". You're the ones making the continued claims of gross lying and it is you who need to read both your own posts and what was said originally instead of merely putting your highly-biased opinion "out there" as fact and iron-clad truth. It isn't. You sound like a Democrat.

As several have mentioned to you several times, you'd be well served to hold off on your ridiculous attacks until we see some additional economic studies so that we can really see what will happen with disposable personal income. I believe it will improve and not decline as the Squirrels do since there is clearly room for prices to decrease with the advent of the FairTax.
