My effective tax rate on doctor visits is zero. Now. Today.
Why don't you explain why my doctor will reduce what he charges, just because the FairTax becomes law. Take your time. LOL!
Sorry, but no - your effective tax rate is nothing like zero today. You merely don't understand what an effective tax rate is. Nor will the effective tax rate be 23% under the FairTax ... for many folks it's something like half that.
You don't seem to realize that you've actually had to earn a good bit more that the doctor's bill presently by adding to that amount the rate for your income tax and your payroll taxes. All of those taxes boost the amount that you've had to pay to be able to pay your doctor. That ain't zero!
