IMO, that is fundamental to the argument.

I agree Principled, and think equally important to acknowledge is that on honest principle and integrity a consumption tax honors the individual/person as primary ...Not a "pay-your-fair-share" collective wherein the group has precedence over the individual. Sacrificing a portion of the individual/person for the supposed betterment of the group, no matter the size/portion, fails honest principle. Honoring the individual as primary offers the greatest potential for increasing prosperity and well-being for all persons and society.
The smallest minority is the individual -- one person. By respecting and protecting individual life-and-property rights the majority and society is protected. Sacrificing any portion of the individual to the group violates individual rights.
