I back it up more than you do. What kind of idiot can't understand that adding a 30% premium to new house when nothing is added to existing homes will effect the competitiveness of new homes and hurt their sales. The fact that you may be able to finance the 30% premium on a new home doesn't mean jack.
You are a hack, a troll, a disruptor whose purpose is to create doubt. I and others know your game and it won’t work. Your attempts at creating doubt are no more that ‘gnats’ buzzing about the warhorse.
Troll? Give me a break. I am not the one who instigates personal attacks on every post. What a loser.
He doesn't realize that doubt is a good thing when presented with a plan that double counts, obfuscates, and seems just plain too good to be true.
Doubt motivates one to think (a painful process for some), to question, and to do one's own research; it means taking responsibility over taking someone's word.
Peter Pan implores the children to clap their hands if they believe in fairies - its the only way to save Tinker Bell - no room for doubt. Hostage implores us to cast aside doubt and believe in the fairytax - its the only way his monthly check will appear in his mailbox.
Just as you have been acting on this thread since you were first challenged to back up your claim, you refuse to.
It’s simple mathematics and was outlined previously in my posts in this thread. Go back and read and you will find the key sentence that you said had no effect. It it has no effect, then show general calculations showing there is no effect and be sure to list your assumptions.
Specifically show what you claim that under the FairTax, a homebuyer who has the NRST added to the price of a home with both price and taxes financed in the mortgage, will not be able to offset the increase in monthly payments with the increase in take-home pay.
So why won’t you back up your claim? Because you can’t.
And for the umpteenth time I will expose your obvious slash and bash tactic, that when a detractor makes absurd claims without back up, not only is that detractor attempting to disrupt and hijack the thread into the direction of nonsense, but that disruptor is signaling they have no credibility, no basis for reasoned debate, and no capability to do research.
