Acknowledging the Fair Tax’s flaws does not make me a socialist.

Acknowledging the Fair Tax’s flaws does not make me a socialist.

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.
