You understand prices will rise under the FairTax?

Of course not since they won’t - they’ll decline somewhat.

That's funny. So, prices fall, take home pay rises and I get a prebate?

Your grasp of economics has great gaps it seems.

You shouldn't talk about economics until you figure out math.

My take is that there's no economics nor math here at all.  This is pure politics to get people to go for Huck, in spite of the fact that Huck's making no promises about cutting either spending or taxes.

Worse yet is how the Huck tax will end the small businesses that have given us the economic growth we've had.   You'll be forced to work for a big company because the minute you try and quit and contract out your work you get slapped with the Huck-tax on your work-hours.

Say good-by to economic independence and say hello to one or two monster corporations..

It's good that you're beginning to grasp what will happen. Keep it up.
