What is your tax bracket now? Don't forget to count all of the taxes being repealed. Those include all federal income taxes, all federal payroll taxes and all federal estate and gift taxes. Those will be replaced by the Fair Tax at 23%.

And you may wish to consider what is good for others as well as yourself. Say your children and grandchildren, who will be active workers at a time when their payroll taxes will be exorbitant and yet they will get no social security benefits from the taxes paid. The Fair Tax would solve those problems, plus give them stronger economic growth to raise standards of living.

Way too high.

Those will be replaced by the Fair Tax at 23%. I haven't forgotten anything. My point, which apparently gets missed by every single reader, is that the government simply doesn't need to steal that much money from the people, regardless of method.

Yes the FairTax is a better and more transparent way for them to steal, but they are still stealing.

Revenue neutral should not be our goal.
