I suspect most just "don't understand the plan" and very few will take the time to dig into the fundamentals. My attempt took a fair amount of research, a background in economics, many years of high level math experience, a smattering of statistics, a working knowledge of budgets and taxation and a generally skeptical outlook. At the time, I had WAY too much time on my hands, so I could afford the time to dig in.

Ultimately, politics and emotion drive these discussions more than economics or math. The math just gets in the way of good talking points!

I've spent at least 40 hours on this and I'm about through I figure, I'm not sure that it is time well-spent because someone else would've shot it down along the way before passage, but I was tired of watching the DC Chapter and the people in Crawford get to do all of the actual activism and wanted to do something besides post on FR about this.

I will followup with Linder and I am trying to get a meeting with him.

Hi Dimples, I had a reason to see some of my FairTax threads from 2005 and you were involved in the same fight in a big way. What a hoax, 15+ years later, I appreciate working together.

I need to get on FR more, I just saw some of your latest Wall Street posts and I really love the intelligent discussions. Off to buy some GameStop...

Your FRiend, Rob
