Because it will be seen as a 30% addition obviously. "Well Joe that will be a dollar plus thirty cents." NO one will see this in its Inclusive form. Another reason it will never happen.

30 cents for every dollar is 23% percent. But no where is it 30%, so you are just a liar spreading FUD about the Fairtax.

Lewislynn insists it must be 30%, but he also insists that there is no such thing as tax inclusive because it would be "impossible". ..(don't ask me!)

Taxes are collected based up the price of the purchase. Thirty cents on the dollar is 30%. My tax rate in Chicago is 9% in places not 7.367. Trying to get away using such an intellectually dishonest calculation is another killing blow against the FT. Twenty nine percent is not as easily understood and worked with so I use Thirty.

I don't have to lie since I have Truth on my side.
