Phantom Lord did a pretty good job just fifteen posts in.
Phantom was wrong in his explaination of #1, he was incorrect in that he did not know that sales tax would in fact be charged on most state employee salaries, and his point that states might not go to the sales tax implies that states will keep the income tax which kind of destroys the whole point of the fair tax system to eliminate income taxes. If the states just pick up the income tax where the feds left off, what is the point? But if you think those are good points, so be it.
'Debating' with someone who calls themselves 'Always Right' is bound to be a fruitless exercise.
Humility is the beginning of wisdom.
And it's been downhill for the author's claims ever since.
