Please cite specific credible evidence supporting your otherwise empty claim. You obviously have no idea the difficulties Americans For Fair Taxation have had in the past raising enough donations to support passing The Fair Tax Act.
Oh, I can well remember the days when the primary sponsor of that snake-oil "reform" was convicted felon Jim "Beam Me Up, Scotty" Traficant.
The Fair Tax has survived during times of low funding due to its merits.
Low funding my butt.
The corporate lobbyists have an army of shills on the Internet waiting to hijack and derail any legitimate discussion of tax reform that ordinary citizens may wish to have. The objective of these transnational corporations is to operate in a global, tax-free environment while saddling the population with cradle-to-grave welfare to make it "fair". And that's exactly what the misnamed "fair tax" does with it's "prebate" checks. Abolish the IRS and everybody gets monthly Social Security checks to "rebate" the sales tax.
What an abomination. Maybe the liberals will be tempted to go down that path to economic slavery, but true conservatives should see right through this scam and tar & feather any sockpuppet politician who endorses it.

Jim Trafficant was indeed a cosponsor of the FairTax but was NEVER ever the primary sponsor! That person is and alwasys has been John Linder of Georgia.

You can't remember anything. The only sponsor of The Fair Tax since it was first introduced in 1999 to Congress was and still is Congressman John Linder of Georgia. In fact Traficant was never even a cosponsor! Where are those sources? Please keep guessing to show how little you know about The Fair Tax.

You're digging a deeper hole. Americans For Fair Taxation does not have lobbyists. Donations for The Fair Tax come from individuals which you could easily see by visiting either
www.fairtax.org or
www.fairtaxnation.com
Please keep spewing your nonsensical remarks for they serve to weaken any argument you have opposing The Fair Tax.
