They don't get it, and never will (as evidenced by the ancient threads). They don't engage in debate, they engage in insults, innuendo, threats (like the one about my POGW pinglist) denial, obfuscation, subterfuge, rewriting history, disconnected arrangement of facts, creation of untenable scenarios, and on and on and on.

I wouldn't even bother wasting my time on these threads other than like a ponzi scheme, they need "N00BS" and economically ignorant suckers to perpetuate the lie...

My only goal is to continue working on rational tax reform (with some real successes) and informing people just what a jackass scheme the not-so-fair-tax is.

What an amazing coincidence. LOL.

Well that’s something I was just thinking about. I am finding that the “debate” comes from the same folks. I have my suspicion about their zeal.

The Fair Tax folks have done an outstanding marketing job, it looks real good from the outside. Hell they have a hot market, everyone hates the IRS. But is is like those cute roadside stores with the bright lights and fancy signs, once you go through the door and really take a good look around, you realize they are carrying crap. Of course those who just popped in and looked around will go out and tell their freinds how great the place is, until one day...

Once any normal person sees the dirty details, like the lawn boy just became a tax collector or that $300 Ipod did not drop in price because Apple decided they could not calculate the “overhead” savings, so now it is 390.00 with tax (or more), this thing is dead
