There have been many studies on past threads showing that under the FairTax (with the 9% price reduction that both sides have stipulated) that a given taxpayer’s purchasing power will rise, not fall as you seem to think.

I can tell you that I have run my personal situation through the FairTax Calculator under every plausible condition and have come out better off under the FairTax every single time. I believe myself to be a fairly typical retired person so I STRONGLY suspect that most others will fair similarly but there is no need for conjecture as everyone can easily see for themselves by simply using the calculator, at the above link, for themselves.

Maybe you can answer the question baybabe keeps avoiding?

My doctor currently charges $100 for a checkup. After the FairTax, the doctor bill will have one line that says, Checkup:$100.

The next line will say FairTax:$---

What will the amount in that line show?

Thanks.
