And you derive this from? Applying a 23% sales tax to an item that cost $100 ads $23 to the item, not $30. Utterly amazing how many FairTax critics change the plan in order to make and justify their arguments......

If I show you I am correct, would you agree that it is extremely misleading on the fairtax folks part to say their rate is 23%?

If you show me you are correct without changing the plan to suit your opinions, I might agree. However, I should caution you I am already pretty sure what you are going to say and it has already been successfully refuted by literally dozens of economists who support the FairTax.

Take your best shot and I'll get back to you later.....
