the FairTax would tax the gas tax

First of all the FairTax does NOT tax the gas tax.

You need to sharpen a whole of thinking before you can join in at this level.

Even allowing for your error correction, the FairTax administers the gas tax which is earmarked for roads and bridges. Any increase in gas tax is completely constitutional as they are necessary for roads and bridges. It has nothing to do with 'sneaking' which is typical of your thinking.

And the AMT was intended to make "rich" people pay their fair share of income taxes.

Yes it would. What makes you think it wouldn't?
