I disagree, I think it is easier to know what you are paying now than with thousands of smaller bites throughout the year, plus other bites that are funneled through state and local governments and are never clearly labelled as such.

The rhetoric doesn’t change the facts that the FairTax is all screwed up. And won’t work as advertised.

People remember what they see often over something the see only rarely as in once a year! Daily, perhaps many times daily is very often. People will be acutely aware of what the government is costing them unlike the current income tax where so much of what they are paying in hidden from them. That is the ones who do pay. Many perceive that they don't pay at all currently!

The FairTax bill is THE most throughly researched piece of legislation ever introduced in congress. It most certainly WILL work as advertised, a fact which scares the bejesus out of some on this forum. That is quite apparent!
