Actually, under FairTax, we'll know exactly how much money the government generates through the 23% national sales tax receipts. That will immediately tell the government how much money they have on hand for operating government agencies, and that will go a long way in determining how much our governments can actually spend.

Why would Congress restrict itself to only spending what its revenues are? Why not deficit spend, like it's doing now?
Changing the taxation model will NOT change the way Congress spends, only the way they collect dollars from us. The only way to reform Congress' spending stupor is to vote them all out OR add a Constitutional balanced budget amendment.
