Or to say the item is used, and not charge the tax.

Would returned items that are resold be taxed? When the item is returned for a refund, would the tax also be refunded?

We're gonna need some tamper-proof super-stickers to go on everything to prove the tax was paid. And a very strong powerful enforcement army to check out everything in our houses to make sure our papers are in order.

Probably, but it wouldn't take much time or paperwork (compliance) to convince the state turned federal tax collector to authorize the credit.< /sarcasm >

BTW, at what point does a state worker administering a federal tax not become a federal employee?...Does the Fairtax eliminate federal employee unions too?
