If you think that April 15th is a nightmare at the Post Office, what do you think will be the effect and administrative cost and burden of processing and mailing all those “Fair Tax” monthly “pre-bate” checks to just about every American family?

It will cost much less than printing, mailing and processing the multitude of tax forms and booklets with the income tax that will no longer have to be done with The Fair Tax.

From what I have read, most FairTax tax refunds will be direct deposited, and will cost about as much to deliver as that spam that fills up our email.

These picky little objections seem pretty trivial to me after I have just prepared and submitted 27 pages of financial data to justify the income tax I paid. What if April 15 was just another day? The FairTax could be horrid and still be better than what we have. Why are you defending the status quo?

Almost all prebate payments will be credits to an electonic account. Just think, no more mountains of paperwork disclosing all the intimate details of your earnings and no more spending hours just to figure out how much to pay the king.
