The black market,drug dealers and all underground types paid the same tax when they purchased goods prior to the Fairtax as they will after the Fairtax
A $1000 watch before the FT incured the 23% embedded tax that was paid by the retailer.
With the FT the 23% embedded tax is paid by the buyer with no change in the total price,still $1000
Complete fallacy that these people types will now pay more taxes under the FT plan
Yes, but you see, often those who are opposing the fair tax claim that the embedded taxes are a mere fraction of the 23% claimed by fair tax supporters. So by their argument, the drug dealers would be paying MORE in taxes than they are now.
