Proof positive that the only defense of the FT is incessant blistering
personal attacks. I hope your're proud of yourself.

What is only worth $70?
Because you can only purchase $70 worth of product, the rest is tax.

To: Mojave
"For each purchase of taxable property or services for which a tax is imposed by section 101, the seller shall charge the tax imposed by section 101 separately from the purchase." Are you claiming that the FairTaxers are claiming any any diffeent? If you are, as you have and seem to be inferring now, you are lying.
Also, you jokers are falsely claiming that the tax will be charged IN ADDITION TO the marked price -- which is a flat out lie.
And yet FTers always demand that critics "read the bill".
What's wrong with that -- you should really try it sometime -- you MIGHT learn something. Although I seriously doubt it.

for the children - so whats the difference? Voluntary - of your own free will or design; not forced or compelled.

Ho Hum -—— Read the book.

"There is no income or consumption test for the rebate. It would go equally to those with zero income and those who buy nothing in the course of a month, as well as to billionaires like Warren Buffett and Bill Gates. In effect, it would constitute a national welfare program with a flat payment for every American regardless of need."
Devastating analysis of the FT welfare scam.

Even people with IQ’s less then the room temperature can come up with hundreds of purchases that invalidate the “Voluntary” BS. Try again.

What's wrong with that The FTers never seem to know what's in the bill themselves. They're constantly being embarrassed when the bill is quoted to them.

BTW, on a lot of these links, you and xcamel are responsible for a lot of postings and it’s well known that you both share a vitriolic propensity.

With a pure fair or consumption tax the government loses the one thing it just cant stand to lose...
Power...
The power to decide who to enslave and who to give the fruit of the slaves' labour to.

To: Turret Gunner A20
Hasn't it occured to you that most of it is none of their damned business -- or shouldn't be? Such as, how much my income is, how many members are in my family, how much money I give away or to whom. what my address is, what my telephone number is, am I retired or for whom I work, and on and on, ad infinitum? I suppose you think that the government will know less about you if the FairTax were enacted.
To: cowboyway; xcamel; groanup
You should take your 'thought-nazi' and strawman arguments back over to DU where they belong.Are you saying xcamel posts on DU? Just wondering.
To: xcamel
Even people with IQs less then the room temperature can come up with hundreds of purchases that invalidate the Voluntary BS. Try again. It's not BS. It is voluntary. Are you saying that the government will enforce 'purchasing'?
By careful purchasing, a person can reduce his tax liability through a sales tax.
Can you do that with an income tax, either flat or graduated? No.
You try again.

Most of the same things the IRS asks for are the same things you need to know to run a good business or even have a solid family financial plan. I think you're on to something there.
To: tyke
Ive read the books. Both sides. Get a copy of Answering the Critics by Boortz and Linder. Maybe it'll answer your questions.
