You defend the ‘Income’ tax by attacking the FairTax.

What kind of thinking is that?

Back to school for a class in logic, assuming there's something to work with.

I beginning to understand your comprehension problem is deeper than first observed.

The FairTax as a consumption tax is a replacement for the Income tax. To attack a consumption tax leaves no alternative but to support an income tax. It is a given that taxes will and must be paid. The question is whether it is better to pay taxes via consumption or via income or via both. The latter is unacceptable, therefore it comes down to a form of consumption or income tax.

Are you for the FairTax or are you for the Income tax?

You are obviously against the FairTax. If you are not for the income tax then what are you for?

Maybe you’re for no taxes at all. If so, we have special places for people like you to think about that.
