Wrong again. It's up to the doctor as an individual retailer to decide his price levels. With the increase in purchasing power for his business, he might decide to reduce prices then again he might not. But he'd have to be cognizant of his competitors.

And, as I've pointed out before your bill would not be costing you an extra "30%" (the erroneous figure you try to keep flashing before everyone's eyes) but your effective FairTax tax rate which would be much less than 23%. You can't seem to understand that the point of sale payment is not your actual cost. That's only what you pay - and you get some portion bask via the prebate making your effective tax rate - and therefore you real cost - much less.

You "anti" types seem to love the throw out these noncoherent things that are grossly untrue and I don't know whether you are really that ignorant (ignorant, not stupid) or not. Mostly I think not.

I'm glad you stopped insisting prices must fall.

Yeah, paying higher rents will certainly increase his buying power. And all other prices will remain the same, right? You know, drop by 23% and then add the 30% tax. LOL!

And, as I've pointed out before your bill would not be costing you an extra "30%"

You're right, going from $100 to $130 is not an extra 30%, it's an extra 23%. LOL!
