It took seven years ...

... but, except for one pig-headed holdout, it looks like most agree.

Sorry guys, most who understand the FairTax realize you're merely blowing smoke abd don't agree with anything so silly. There'll be no "substantial price increase" at all.

Disposable personal income will remain where it is or - more likely - go up somewhat. With all the income tax effects taken out of prices it can hardly be otherwise despite your misinformation.

You guys are funny. Saying prices will rise and the sky is falling! Open your eyes - purchasing power will remain stable. Do you not see this?

I guess you guys took an anti-reform seminar telling you to harp on price increase - but omit the part about corresponding increases (in wages or roi) that force purchasing power to remain stable.

I think you really wonder why some doubt your word. Either you intentionally leave that part out, or you are ignorant of it. I can't say which -

Why don't you ask someone away from this board about it? Someone who you'd trust? Or ask someone on this board you trust!

What you'll get from me and what you've gotten is that purchasing power will remain stable. Your "say it loud and often" is recognized by everyone on FR. FR is not a bunch of idiots. That's du.

If prices rise by x while my spending money increases by an amount sufficient to pay those prices, then purchasing power has remained at least as before.

Why do you omit that part?
