A sales tax is no better than a flat tax.
Remember, the changes Bush does will only be TEMPORARY. The democrats will eventually UNDO everything. It's only a matter of time.
Don't bother vacuuming your carpet, either... It's just going to get dusty again. :o/

The grass root method if engaging the masses to force congress to implement the fair tax, abolish the IRS and repeal the 16th amendment doesn't stop there. The upper hand, as it should be, will be with the people.
The carpets will be in perpetual clean mode and thus there will be no step backwards. The masses, as they will have demonstrated their power, will scream, "get the dirt before it hits the carpet".
Might as well give up on that as well!

Remember once one has sufficient backing by the electorate to make a change in the tax system as proposed under the NRST, going back to an income tax will be a politically dead issue for generations to come. For the institutions that work to maintain status quo then work in favor of maintaining the tax reform accomplished and against those that would return to the systems that were replaced.
