30% sales tax on what I buy????

Dang where do you freepers live and or shop? Ever heard of buying on the internet or driving a few miles to a state that has lower sales taxes....get pro active y’all.

I always check sales taxes on every purchase I make, nicking 2% on big ticket items makes a positive difference.

Example, if in Chicago, drive north, cross the border to WI and pay far less sales tax...etc..etc...etc...

So your argument for the Fair Tax is to avoid it? And here I was told by ardent Fair Tax supporters that one of its benefits is that it catches avoiders! Funny. It’s sort of like the Cain supporters who reassure me that his 9-9-9 plan will never pass. So why support him?
