My support of the FairTax is tied to its passage coupled with the repeal of the 16th Amendment.

Without that, I will not support it.

Like I said before, I'm holding my breath.

# 34. Could we end up with both the FairTax and an income tax?

No current supporter of the FairTax would support the FairTax unless the entire income tax is repealed. Moreover, concurrent with the repeal of the income tax, a constitutional amendment repealing the 16th Amendment and prohibiting an income tax will be pushed through Congress for ratification by the states (filed as HJR 16 in the 109th Congress).
