The point I am making is this, if the Fair Tax was truly fair, everyone would have to pay the same amount of taxes. It does not, so I believe the Fair Tax is a fraud, and is not fair.
Say two guys work side by side getting the same pay. One works all the overtime offered, while the other does not. At the end of the year the hard worker is hit with a higher tax bill, this is not fair. A fair tax should tax them both the same amount.
I never meant to imply you were a socialist.

Wrong!! Neither of them gets a tax bill at the end of the uear. Neither of them pays a tax until he purchases something.

the really unfair tax is the income tax which is a disincentive for hard work. The more you make, the more they take...there was a very good reason why up until about world war two the country ran only on excise taxes and the like...to go into people’s paychecks is intrusive and totally against what the founding fathers implemented. How some americans can actually argue for it shows how far we have fallen.
