So how all your supposive savings gets passed on to the consumer is not part of this discussion?

ANother invalid conclusion based on biased thought.

Of course the discussion of tax savings getting passed on to consumers in the form of lower prices, passed on to workers in the form of higher wages, and passed on to investors in the form of inproved ROI is germane to the general discussion of the benefits of the national retail sales tax!

That is not where you jumped in.

If you want to discuss the benefits (lower prices, higher wages, and improved ROI), let's go.

I'll start... I assert that all of these benefits will occur:
1) lower prices
2) higher wages
3) improved ROI

Indeed I further assert that 100% of the savings realized by eliminating ALL income and payroll taxes WILL be found in one of those categories.

Bring it on.

LOL. If wages are higher how do prices go lower? Again, unless employees are willing to accept lower wages to match the taxes they are savings, the prices of goods will not be that much lower, at least not enought to match the added sales tax. You are trying to count benefits on both ends.
