As was clearly pointed out - you’ve got it wrong using your own example.

No I don't.

It doesn’t rise as you claim nor has anyone ever shown that to be the case.

The price will certainly rise. Adding a 30% tax tends to do that.

Purchasing power actually will increase under the FairTax.

That's your claim. You just can't prove it.

As I pointed out, your example I responded to was something you were incorrect about (and now won’t admit it).

If you’d look back at these FairTax threads for the last 5 or more years you’d see many detailed numerical examples that clearly show the taxpayer’s purchasing power increases under the FairTax rather declines as you postulate based upon anecdotal examples you chose.
