My choice of 23% is both in your ballpark AND necessary for an after-tax price neutral outcome. What's the problem?

I'm confused, are you saying that a drop of 23% in prices is required to retain the same amount of revenue as currently collected?

No, he's saying that a drop of 23% in prices is required so that things won't cost more than they do now when the 30% FairTax is added.
