Since the FT is not yet law, is can easily be corrected to exempt business-to-gov’t sales from the FT. Again, this is absurd.

Our huge deficit convinces me that spending is only casually related to tax revenues, & the FT is touted as revenue-neutral vs. our current tax revenues. Fed. spending plays no part in this debate.

I have no doubt our current & future crops of congress critters will feather their own beds at every opportunity, no matter what system of Gov’t financing we have; so that is not relevant unless you can show particular areas where the FT is more liable for abuse than the current system. Except for the prebate, I don’t see them.

You managed to miss the ENTIRE point of the post to which you responded.

Take a closer look and tell me again that government purchases should be tax exempt.
