“” ‘NRST eliminates business taxes.
The nrst will help business’
Not if you’re a (Fairtaxable) service business or even a retail business.
The 23% fairtax rate is a income tax on the business gross, not a sales tax on the consumer.
Tally up your gross taxable receipts (AKA gross income), remit 23% to the feds...
Not a business tax?...HA! ‘’
And who do you get the income from, if not consumers???
Does the “fairtax” propose to lay a 23 percent tax upon the sale of all new manufactured property? YES
Does the “fairtax” require Mary and Joe Sixpack [as I described them at the top of the thread] to give the federal government a 23 percent cut of the action if they sell the property they have in their labor on weekends by cleaning and painting homes, making handyman repairs, baby sitting, cutting their neighbors lawns, etc.? YES
Will Mary and Joe have to file fairtax returns 12 times a year? YES
Will Mary and Joe still be subject to audits? YES
Will Mary and Joe have to keep any record Congress may dream up? YES
In addition to the 23 percent cut Mary and Joe must giver to government on the sale of their labor, will they also have to pay an additional 23 percent tax upon products they purchase. YES
If H.J RES. 16, the “fairtax” companion legislation to repeal the 16th amendment were adopted by the States, would Congress maintain the authority to lay and collect taxes calculated from incomes? YES! As were laid during the Civil War and upheld in Springer vs. United States.
Under the fairtax, would Congress maintain power to lay and collect taxes calculated from corporate and business profits and gains? YES As were imposed under the Corporate Excise Tax of 1909 and upheld in Flint vs. Stone Tracy.
Will the IRS be closed down under the “fairtax”. YES, but in its place two new tax collecting agencies will be created, the Excise Tax Bureau and the Sales tax Bureau, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms will also be collecting taxes!
Does the “fairtax” propose to send a monthly check to people who are not gainfully employed and on the public dole? YES
Why is the “fairtax” called a “progressive” tax by fairtax.org? Because it proposes to redistribute wealth under its family consumption entitlement.
Is the “fairtax” a proposal for a massive expansion of what Congress may tax? YES
What tax reform would accomplish real tax reform? Adding the following 32 words to our Consitution:
The Sixteenth Amendment is hereby repealed and Congress is henceforth forbidden to lay ``any`` tax or burden calculated from profits, gains, interest, salaries, wages, tips, inheritances or any other lawfully realized money
If these words were added to our Constitution they would restore our Constitution‘s ORIGINAL TAX PLAN as our founding fathers intended it to operate and force Congress to raise its primary revenue from taxes on articles of consumption, and would end the miseries we now experience under taxes calculated from “incomes”, which is what I thought the ringleaders of the alleged fair tax wanted!

If we can make the majority of America’s families dependent upon a federal government check, [the alleged fair tax’s family consumption entitlement] we can then bribe them for their vote, keep ourselves in power and keep the remaining portion of America’s productive population enslaved to pay the bills ___Our Washington Establishment’s Marxist game plan, a plan to establish a federal plantation and redistribute the bread which America’s labor and business has produced.
