# 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No current supporter of the FairTax would support the FairTax unless the entire income tax is repealed.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).
I can not support or fall for the "once the Fair Tax is passed we will work on repealing the 16th amendment" or "we will get it repealed in the future." Because it won't happen.

That is an out right (copy and pasted lie) And a hilarious one to boot.
If the clowns at AFFT can simply "push" anything through Congress why isn't the Fairtax anything more than your wet dream?
There is NOTHING in the Fairtax plan that compels any other legislation be "pushed" through Congress and HR 16 is NOT a "sister" to the Fairtax...except, like everything else said about the fairtax, in your dreams.
